Answer: b

Answer 2

The correct answer is:

C) $4269.90.

Explanation:

40 hours per week at 18.32:

40*18.32 = 732.80.

Over time is time and a half; this means:

18.32*1.5=27.48 per hour overtime.

5 hours of overtime per week would be:

27.48*5=137.40.

Together this makes:

732.80+137.40=870.20 per week.

There are 4 weeks in a month;

4*870.20=3480.80.

You make 10% commission on the sales; 10% = 0.1.

0.1*7891=789.10.

Add this to the monthly income:

3480.80+789.10=4269.90.
