Answer:

Her hourly rate is $10.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating Laraine hourly rate.

In the question, we are told that the overtime rate is 1.5 times the regular hours rate.

Now, let the regular hours rate be $x / hour

For a total of 40 hours, the total money made will be 40 * x = $40x

Now let’s look at the overtime;

Since the overtime is 1.5 times the regular and she had 3 overtime hours;

Money obtained from overtime will be 1.5 * x * 3 = $4.5x

Let’s add this to the regular and equate to the total money made;

4.5x + 40x = 476.15

44.5x = 476.15

x = 476.15/44.5

x = 10.7
