Question

Jessica makes $21.40 per hour at her job for the first 40 hours and $32.10 for anything over 40 hours. If Jessica typically works 45 hours per week, how much does she earn?

​

Answer 1

1016.50

Explanation:

$21.40 per hour at her job for the first 40

21.40 * 40 =856

She has 5 hours over 40 (45-40 =4)

That means 5 hours at 32.10

5 * $32.10 =160.5

Add the two amounts together

856+160.5

1016.50
