Answer 1

Answer:

He was paid $ 1200 last month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

He gets paid monthly at a rate of $150 for each song he completes last month,

⇒ The money he get last month for one song = $ 150,

Also, the number of songs he wrote last month = 8,

Since, the money he earned for 8 songs = 8 × 150 = $ 1200,

Hence, he was paid $ 1200 last month.

Answer 2

150 * 8 = $1,200
150 / 2 = $75

$1,200 + $75 = 1275
