Answer:

$980

Explanation:

Regular hours- 40 per week

Regular wage- $10/hour

Regular Pay- (40 hours + 40 hours) × $10.00/hour = $800

First week: 43 hours = 40 hours regular + 3 hours overtime

Second week: 49 hours = 40 hours regular + 9 hours overtime

Overtime hours- 3 hours + 9 hours = 12 hours

Overtime wage- $10/hour × 1.5 = $15/hour

Overtime Pay- 12 hours × $15/hour = $180

Gross Pay-​ $800 + $180 = $980
