Answer 2

1. 9.70*8=77.6
    77.6*2=155.2 which is your answer 

2.  For this one i'm sorry i just basically calculated all the possibles and this is correct just time consuming but its $8.95.

3. time and a half=1.5,11.28*1.5=16.78 
    next do 11.28*40=451.2 then do 16.78*6 for the remaning hours of pay and you get 100.68. 100.68+451.20=551.88 which would be your answer

4.I believe it'd be 13 percent but i'm not 2 sure on this one. 

5. 3250 plus 4% (certain calculators can do this) and you get $3380(this one is wrong look at the other guys #5 for the correct one.)
 
sorry i couldn't explain some properly, but i hope i at least helped a little.
