Option C

intercept is -3. We know that the fish cannot be above the x=0 or the x-axis such that the fish is already 3 ft below sea level due to the negative sign. (See graph)

We are also given from the equation that y=-7x-3 which tells us that -7 is the slope and and rate of change. Therefore, the fish is moving 7 meters per second downwards with the given equation which allows us to conclude that the answer is C.

Option A states that it starts at -7 meaning that the intercept has to be -7 which is wrong, inclining that the equation has to be y=-3x-7 which is not the equation we were given.

step-by-step explanation:

hihi so drawing these 2 triangles is fairly simple. all that's left is finding the height of each one. luckily, we have a side length and an angle, so there is a trig function we can use to solve for the height. the easiest one to use would be tangent, since we have 2/3 things needed to find and the third needed is what we are solving for. tan(73°) * 30 ~= 98.13 and tan(73°) * 35 ~= 114.45
