Hi! The answer is 580 because he works a forty hour week which is 40 x 10 = 400 plus twelve extra hours at a time and a half if he usually gets paid $10 an hour and then you add time and a half which is $5 so he gets paid $15 for the extra twelve hours. 12 x $15 is 180 and 400 + 180 is $580. I hope this helps, Goodluck! :)
In this exercise we have to use our knowledge of finance to calculate the amount paid last week, so we have:
[tex]\$580[/tex]
From the information given in the statement we have that:
- Ben worked 52 hours last week
- hourly rate for hours worked is $ 10.00
- After his 40 hour work week
Now performing the calculations of the values previously informed, we have that:
[tex]40*10=400\\5*12=180\\400+180=580[/tex]
