t is the number of hours Lamar worked as a tutor
We know that he worked for 92 hours total, so he worked 92-t hours as a waiter.
So his earnings are: 7t + 8(92-t) = 736 -t dollars
This expression seems logical as if Lamar worked 0 hours as a tutor and 92 as a waiter his earnings would be 8*92 = 736
If he worked as a tutor for 92 hours it would be 7*92= 644
736-92= 644
So our expression seems to be working.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = (-16t-2)(t-1)
To find the zeros, let's set y = 0 and separate these two expressions in parenthesis with the zero product property.
0 = -16t-2
0 = t-1
Now let's solve for t and get two zeros.
0 = -16t-2
2 = -16t
<u>t = -1/8</u>
0 = t-1
<u>t = 1</u>
1. Our two zeros are t = -1/8 and t = 1.
2. The two zeros are not both meaningful! Remember that this is modeling time, and we don't really care about -1/8 seconds. We don't need that negative time measurement, so we just want to know what's happening at 1 second. And at one second, the ball is on the ground. Great, so we know that height of ball = 0 after 1 second.
