Hope this helps.

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hours A courier worked = 39

Money a courier earned  = $ 429

⇒ Hourly Wage of the courier = [tex]\frac{429}{39}[/tex]

                                                  = $ 11 per hour

Let x be the rate shown on his pay stub.

According tot he Question,

x + 3 = 11

x = 11 - 3

x = 8

Therefor, Option B is correct.
