Answer:

B. $8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total payment, T = $160

Hourly rates = $t/hour

= total payment/total time worked

The question said, "worked 12 more hours than the amount she is paid per hour".

Total time worked = (12 + t) hour

Therefore, Hourly rates of payment, t = 160/(12 + t)

t^2 + 12t - 160 = 0

Solving the above quadratic equation,

t = -20 and 8

t = $8

Suppose h(t) = -4t^2+ 11t + 3 is the height of a diver above the water in
nadezda [96]

Answer:

11/4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see from the given equation that the height at the diving board is h = 3.

This is because the h(t) equation has that +3 at the end, which denotes the initial height of the diver, the height when he is standing on the board before jumping.

To find where h(t) = 3 is true, we need to set h(t) equal to 3 and solve for t.

h(t) = 3

h(t) = -4t^2 + 11t + 3 = 3

-4t^2 + 11t + 3 - 3 = 0

-4t^2 + 11t = 0

t*(-4t + 11) = 0

so h(t) = 3 when t = 0 and when t = 11/4 sec

we already know that at t = 0 the height is 3, it is the initial height given from the equation, so we want to use the other solution for t.

the diver is back at the height of the diving board at t = 11/4 sec
