Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the earnings of the carpenter, we need to multiply her hourly wage by the number of hours she worked. She worked 34 hours a week for half a year, which is approximately 26 weeks. Therefore, the total earnings can be calculated as:

Hourly wage * Hours worked = $20 * 34 * 26 = $17,680.

So, the carpenter earned $17,680 during this time period.
