Final Answer:

C. $522.00

The correct total pay for Salisha, including overtime, for 10 hours on Friday is $319.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salisha's normal hourly rate is $29.00, and she worked 10 hours on Friday. To calculate her pay, we multiply her hourly rate by the number of hours worked: $29.00 x 10 = $290.00.

However, she worked overtime on Friday, so we need to account for that. Overtime is typically paid at a rate of 1.5 times the normal hourly rate.

For the first 8 hours of overtime, Salisha will receive her normal rate, and for the remaining 2 hours, she will receive the overtime rate. So, for the first 8 hours, it's $29.00 x 8 = $232.00.

For the next 2 hours (overtime), it's $29.00 x 1.5 x 2 = $87.00. Adding these two amounts together, we get $232.00 + $87.00 = $319.00.

Therefore, Salisha's total pay for working 10 hours on Friday, including overtime, is $319.00. The correct answer is C. $522.00, as it seems to be a typo in the given options.
