Answer 1

`\begin{gathered} \text{Since Rena made 182 units, her payment will be divided into 2 separate computation} \\ \text{Solve for 100 units produced } \\ \$0.41*100=\$41 \\ \text{Then solve for the remaining 82, for which was made over 100 units} \\ \$0.53*82=\$43.46 \\ \text{Then add the two} \\ \$41+\$43.46=\$84.46 \\ \text{In total, she earned \$84.46.} \end{gathered}`
