Answer:

9 * 8 = $72

0.125 * 380 = $47.50

47.50 + 72 = $119.50

therefore, Roberta earns $119.50 on an 8 hour shift in which she sells $380 dollars worth of jewelry

Roberta makes nine dollars an hour, so in an eight hour shift she makes 72.00, Additionally she makes 47.50 from her 12.5 percent commission . In total she will take home (72.00 + 47.50 ) = 119.50 dollars .
