Mr. Evans is paid $9.20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week. He is paid 1.5 times that rate for each hour he works after that. Last week Mr. Evans worked 42.25 hours. He says he earned more than $400 last week. Do you agree? Support your answer
NO, in working 40 hrs x $9.20 he earned $ 368.00 overtime pay is $9.20+$ 4.60= $ 13.80 per hour $13,80 x 2.25 hours=$31.05 $368+ $31.05= $399.05 which is less than $400
