The correct response is: 6 3/4
The equation 12h + 30 = 258 can be used to represent the situation where Eric was paid $30 last week, received a $258 bonus, and earned $12 for each hour he worked. To find the value of h, which represents the number of hours Eric worked last week, we need to solve the equation.
To do this, we can start by isolating the term with h by subtracting 30 from both sides of the equation:
12h + 30 - 30 = 258 - 30
Simplifying, we have:
12h = 228
Next, we can solve for h by dividing both sides of the equation by 12:
12h/12 = 228/12
Simplifying further, we get:
h = 19
Therefore, the number of hours Eric worked last week is 19. Hence, the correct response is:
"Eric was paid $30 last week. He was paid a $258 bonus and $12 for each hour he worked. The number of hours Eric worked last week is 19."
