Isaac is working as a security guard. He earns $8.45 an hour. He earns double time for any overtime over 40 hours. Last week he worked 44 hours. How much did he earn last week? (Hint: double time means 2 times the regular hourly rat.)

The answer is 709.8 You would do 8.45 times 40 = 338 now since he did overtime you multiply it by 2. 338*2= 676. He also did another 4 hours 8.45*4=33.8 now you add these together 33.8+676 = 709.8
