Lucy earns $8.50 per hour at a local restaurant. She earns time and a half for each hour she works on a holiday. Lucy worked eight hours each day for four days, then worked five hours on a holiday. How much did she earn for that week?

Answer :

Answer:

$ 335.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular hours  worked  4 days * 8 hours = 32 hours

Regular pay =  32 *  8.50 = $ 272

overtime rate = 8.50 * 1.50 = $ 12.75 per hour

overtime pay =  $ 12.75 x 5 hours =  $ 63.75

Total earnings :  $ 272 + $  63.75  = $ 335.75
