    The correct answer is 4.8 meters.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Jamal stands on a dock 1.5 meters above the surface of the water.

    A trout swims 4.8 meters below Jamal.

    The trout must be swimming below the surface of water.

    Therefore the distance below the surface of water where the trout is swimming is 4.8 - 1.5 = 3.5 meters.

    But the vertical distance between Jamal and the trout is 4.8 meters only.
