Answer 2

From the informations provided within the question, we know that:
Maya works for 16 hours at the rate of $6.75 per hour.
Maya worked for 3 days in a house sitting without pets for $30 per hour.
Maya also worked for 5 days in a house sitting with pets for $40 per hour.
Now we have to find out the total income maya made during the month.
Firstly
Income from per time job for the month = (16 * 6.75) dollars
= 108 dollars
Income from house sitting without pets for the month = ( 3 * 30) dollars
= 90 dollars
Income from house sitting with pets for the month = ( 5 * 40) dollars
= 200 dollars
So the total income made by Maya in the month = (108 + 90 + 200) dollars
= 398 dollars
So the correct option for this question is option "d".
