Respuesta :

23.10(40) + 34.65(6) = 924 + 207.90 = 1131.90 <==

Answer:

Total hours in one week he works = 46 hours

As per the statement: Luis makes $23.10 per hour at his job for the first 40 hours he works each week.

First 40 hours Luis makes = [tex]40 \times 23.10 = \$924[/tex]

Also, it is given that if he works more than 40 hours, then Luis makes $34.65 per hour.

Then; for remaining 6 hours he makes = [tex]6 \times 34.65 = \$207.90[/tex]

To find how much Luis earn if he works 46 hours in one week.

Luis earn if he works 46 hours in one week = For first 40 hours he earn + For remaining 6 hours he earns.

Then;

Total Luis earn for 46 hours in one week = $924 + $207.90 = $1,131.90

Therefore, $1,131.90 does he total earn if he works 46 hours in one week.
