Answer:

$533.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Earning per hour for Thomas = $10.50

Working hours per week = 40 Hours

Basic earning for the week = $10.50 × 40 = $420

She earns time and a half for overtime and total over time done is 8.5 hours

∴ Overtime earning = $10.50 × 8.5 + ($10.50 × 8.5)/2 = $133.88

Total Earning for the week = 420 + 133.88 = $533.88
