Answer:

$2063.44

Explanation:

1st week = $439.50

2nd and 3rd week = 62 hours and each hour = $22.79

Total amount earned in 2nd and 3rd week = 62 * 22.79 = $1412.98

4th week = 48% of what she earned in her first week = 48% of $439.50

4th week = (48 / 100) * 439.50 = $210.96

Total amount she earned = 1st week + 2nd & 3rd week + 4th week

Total amount = $439.50 + $1412.98 + $210.96

Total amount = $2063.44

She earned a total of $2063.44
