I used to have a teacher who said this as well. The best way to understand would be to show examples of how to specify such terms as “stuff” and “things”. For instance: “The birds have lots of stuff.” That was not clear because the reader does not know what the “stuff” is. Instead, the text could be changed to: “The birds have lots of feathers.” Now the reader knows what the stuff is because it has been replaced with a more specific word. If you go over multiple examples in your head, it will become easier to comprehend and you will get used to doing it.

Answer:
$400.50
Explanation:
Calculation for her total pay for the week
First step is to calculate her gross pay
Gross pay=$9 per hour*40-hour week
Gross pay=$360
Second step is to calculate her Hourly overtime rate since we were told that she receives time-and-a-half (1.5)
Hourly overtime rate=1.5 0vertime rate*$9 per hour
Hourly overtime rate=$13.50
Third step is to calculate the number of overtime hours worked
Number of overtime hours worked=43 hours-40-hour week
Number of overtime hours worked=3
Fourth step is to calculate her overtime pay
Overtime pay=$13.50*3
Overtime pay=$40.50
Last step is to calculate her total pay for the week using this formula
Total pay=Gross pay+Overtime pay
Let plug in the formula
Total pay=$360+$40.50
Total pay=$400.50
Therefore her total pay for the week will be $400.50
