Answer:

$110.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, determine the total number of hours worked.


\begin{gathered} \text{Morning: From 08:00 to 12:15 =4 hrs 15 minutes} \\ \text{Afternoon: From 13:00 to 17:15 =4 hrs 15 minutes} \end{gathered}

Add the two to find the total:


\begin{gathered} \text{Total}=(4+4)hours+(15+15)\text{minutes} \\ =8\text{ hours 30 minutes} \\ =8+(30)/(60) \\ =8+0.5 \\ =8.5\text{ hours} \end{gathered}

Given a wage of $13/hr, the pay will be:


\begin{gathered} \text{Pay}=13*8.5 \\ =\$110.50 \end{gathered}

The pay is $110.50.
