Answer 1

$799.2

Explanation:

Answer 2

$799.2

HOW-TO-ANSWER

She is getting paid for 36 hours every week. So assuming that time and a half means this:

(36 * 14.80) ÷ 2 + (36 * 14.80)

(In basic terms, that's how much she is normally getting paid every week, or 36 hours, plus half of that amount. Full time + half time = X)
