Given, the hourly wage for Joe = $8.10 per hour.

Over 40 hours, Joe is paid $ 12.15 per hour.

Last week, Joe worked for 45 hours.

So for 40 hours he was paid =$
(40)(8.10) = $324.

The remaining hours =
(45-40) = 5 hours.

Joe was paid for 5 hours over 40 hours = $
(5)(12.15) = $60.75

The total amount that was paid = $
(324+60.75) = $
384.75

So we have got the required answer.

Total amount paid to Joe last week is $384.75.
