Answer:

She will earn $148.50 in overtime this week.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you multiply 11 by 1.5. That gets you 16.5. So, for every overtime hour she works, she gets $16.50. Since she works 9 overtime hours, you multiply 16.5 by 9 to 148.5. So, she earns $148.50 for overtime this week.
