Answer:

#5 = $676.40

#6 = $522.50

Explanation:

Lets start with number 5.

Marla earns $17.80 per hour. If she works 38 hours a week she will earn $(17.80*38) per week which is $676.40 per week

Now for number 6

He earns $11.00 an hour for a 40 hour work week. If he gets paid 1.5 that (1.5 his normal rate) for overtime and he has 45 hours vs his 40 hours, heres how we solve:

Solve for his pay on a normal week:

11 * 40 = 440 a week on a normal week

Find out how much overtime

45-40 = 5 hours

Calculate the pay for the overtime

(11*1.5) x 5 =

16.50 x 5 = 82.5

Add the two pays together

440 + 82.50 = $522.50

also #4 is not provided to me to solve so if you want it solved update this question to include it

Hope this helps :)
