Someone help me with this math homework please!

Option number B

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level.

Given the equation as:

7h - 5 ( 3h -8 ) = -72

Using distributive property, 

a ⋅ ( b + c ) = a ⋅ b + a ⋅ c

7h - 15h + 40 = - 72

Combine like terms;

-8h + 40 = -72

Subtract 40 from both sides we have;

-8h 8= -112

Divide both sides by -8 we have;

h = 14 hours

Therefore, the statement is true about Pieter’s solution is, It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.

step-by-step explanation:

what is the question? i am guessing you are looking for the area.

to find an area, you have to do length x width.

in this case, it would be 12 ft x 4 ft = 48 sq. ft
