X will be used for the value of money she earned that week.
H represents the normal hours she worked.
D represents the number of days.
Y will represent the hours on the holiday.
Since she would be getting time and a half on the holiday, you would need to find how much time and a half pay would be first.
Time and a half = 5.50(1/2) + 5.50 = $8.25/hr for the day or holiday only.
X = 5.50(H)(D) + 8.25(Y)
Plug in your numbers
X = 5.50(7)(5) + 8.25(4)
X = 192.5 + 33
She made $225.5 that week.
