It looks like there may be some missing or unclear parts in your statements. However, I can help clarify the situation based on the information given.

  1. The height of the diving board above the water is 4 feet.
  2. The pool itself is 8 feet deep.
  3. When Billy dives in, he goes from the height of the diving board (4 feet above the water) to the bottom of the pool, which is 8 feet deep.

To summarize the heights:

  • The surface of the water can be considered at 0 feet (this is the reference point).
  • The diving board is at +4 feet (4 feet above the water).
  • The bottom of the pool is at -8 feet (8 feet below the water's surface).

Now, looking at the statements in your question, I think the following interpretations might help:

  • The water level is at 0 feet.
  • The diving board is at +4 feet (above the water).
  • The bottom of the pool is at -8 feet (below the water level).

If any of the options provided fit this summary or if you provide the complete options, I can assist you further in choosing the correct statement.
