Respuesta :

He will be paid $660

Answer:

$660

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that James pay is $12 an hour plus time and a half for overtime.

The pay for overtime would be [tex]\$12+\frac{\$12}{2}=\$12+\$6=\$18[/tex].

The overtime pay for 10 hours would be [tex]\$18\times 10=\$180[/tex].

The regular pay for 40 hours would be [tex]\$12\times 40=\$480[/tex].

[tex]\text{Total pay}=\text{regular pay}+\text{Overtime pay}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total pay}=\$480+\$180[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total pay}=\$660[/tex]

Therefore, James's total pay would be $660.
