Respuesta :

The following options are a trade off of Ray's time- He will spend one extra hour on homework and give up watching TV.

He will play his favorite game for one hour and do homework for two hours.

He will ask his brother to help him with his homework.

Answer: Option B, Option D, Option E.

Explanation:

In the above scenario Ray has only ‘six hours’ before going to bed. So he plans what all should be done in those six hours. He gives only one hour for his homework, but he knew his math homework would take more than two hours. So in such case he will have to trade off (give up something to get something else) his time. This could be done by

• Giving up watching TV and spending those hours doing math homework.

• Instead of playing games for two hours, he will play his game for only an hour and put that hour in doing his homework.

• He can also ask his brother to help him with his homework, by this his homework will be finished soon.
