Question

How much per hour will the driver be paid during the

Answer 1

For the first 28 days, the driver will be paid $14 per hour.

The driver will be paid $560 for a 40-hour workweek for the first 28 days.

In this period, the driver will make $2,260 for a 40-hour workweek.

The driver will be paid $720 for a 40-hour workweek after the first 28 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In the ad, it is given that to start the driver gets $14 per hour and gets $18 per hour after 28 days.

So for the first 28 days, the driver will be paid $14 per hour.

Step 2:

If the driver works for 40 hours a week, we multiply the money he makes for each hour with the 40 hours.

The money the driver makes for a 40-hour workweek $= 40(14) = \ 560.$

So for a single week, the driver will make $560. As this is for 4 weeks, the driver will make $4(560) = \ 2,260$ during this time.

Step 3:

The driver will be paid $40(14) = \ 560$ for a 40-hour workweek for the first 28 days.

The driver will be paid $40(18) = \ 720$ for a 40-hour workweek after the first 28 days.
