The speed of a fish before jumping out of the water can be represented by the equation s = 3h, where h

represents the height, in centimeters, the fish jumps out of the water and s represents the speed of the fish in

can the fish jump?

Answer: The fish can jump 5m high.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

s = 3h

where

h  = the height(cm) the fish jumps out of the water

and s = speed of the fish(meters per second)  then

3 must have seconds as its unit.

Now, If the fish is swimming at 15 meters per second

Then the fish can jump =

s= 3h

15m/s =3h

h= 15m/s/3s

h= 5 meters
