Answer:

$342.66

Explanation:

For the 3 overtime hours Michael worked, he is paid at the rate of 1.5×$8.675 per hour. This is equivalent to $8.675 per hour for 1.5×3 = 4.5 hours. So, we can figure Michael's total pay as ...

(35 h + 1.5×3 h)×($8.675 /h) = (39.5 h)×(8.675 /h) = $342.66

Michael's total pay for the week is $342.66.
