Answer:
You will earn $15.75, $13.50, or $18 depending on how you are getting paid
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are getting paid a flat rate not by the hour, then simply multiply $3.50 by 3.5 to get $15.75
If you are getting paid by the hour, and only by full hours, the you get $3.50 for the first, second, and third hour, but not for the fourth hour because it has only been a half hour, so only $13.50.
If you are getting paid for each hour that you start, then you get $3.50 for four hours, or $18.00 total
The following answer would have to be .34

You can solve it algebraically by simply adding the numbers in the parenthesis and multiplying to get 35x but if you want to solve it using distributive property exclusively then distribute as so
5x(3) + 5x(4)
15x + 20x
35x
