Answer 2

The answer is : option d. $384

Explanation:

Tim's hourly wage is $8.00 and he earns double time for holidays. Means he earns $16 per hour on holidays.

If Tim works a normal 8 hour day on Christmas, and Christmas falls on a Tuesday, means he got
`16*8=$128` dollars on Tuesday.

Assuming Tim normally works Monday through Friday.

So, for the rest 4 days of the week, he earned
`8*8*4=256` dollars

Therefore, for the week Tim earned a total of =
`128+256=$384` dollars

Hence, option D is the answer.
