Answer:

$13.47 per hour

Explanation:

Total earnings = 9.25 (h) + 8 (t/20)

Where h is the number of hours and t is the number of transformers.

Since he worked for 36 hours and assembled 380 transformers:

Total earnings = 9.25 (36) + 8 (380/20)

Total earnings = 333+152 = $485

Finally, to find how much he earned per hours, we simply have to divide the result by the number of hours worked (36):

485/36 = $13.47 per hour.
