The correct answer is D. Eric was paid $458 last week. He was paid a $40 bonus and $11 for each hour he worked. To find h, the number of hours Eric worked last week, we can rearrange the equation 11h + 40 = 458 to solve for h. Subtracting 40 from both sides gives us 11h = 418. Dividing both sides by 11 gives us h = 38. Therefore, Eric worked 38 hours last week.
