Hence, Rashida will be paid $960 for 40 hour work.

Explanation:

Rashida was paid $720 for 30 hours of work.

that means the amount she is being paid fro 1 hour of work is:

`(720)/(30)=$24`

Hence she is paid $24 for 1 hour work.

Now we have to find how much amount she is being paid for 40 hour of work:

Amount paid for 1 hour=$24

Amount paid for 40 hour=$ (24×40)=$960.

Hence, Rashida will be paid $960 for 40 hour work.
