Hello! It seems like you've pasted a mix of content, including questions on the impact of European exploration on Indigenous populations and references to computer keys. Since your primary question pertains to a specific mathematical problem, I’ll focus on that.

Let’s consider the scenario where Anna and Bob are earning weekly based on their respective hourly rates and the number of hours they work each week. Here is the detailed solution to determine their weekly earnings.

First, let's break down the given values:
- Anna’s hourly rate: [tex]$18 per hour. - Anna’s weekly working hours: 40 hours. - Bob’s hourly rate: $[/tex]22 per hour.
- Bob’s weekly working hours: 35 hours.

To calculate the weekly earnings for both Anna and Bob, we proceed as follows:

1. Calculate Anna's weekly earnings:
- Multiply Anna’s hourly rate by her weekly working hours:
[tex]\[ \text{Weekly earnings of Anna} = \text{Hourly rate of Anna} \times \text{Weekly hours of Anna} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Weekly earnings of Anna} = \$18 \times 40 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Weekly earnings of Anna} = \$720 \][/tex]

2. Calculate Bob's weekly earnings:
- Multiply Bob’s hourly rate by his weekly working hours:
[tex]\[ \text{Weekly earnings of Bob} = \text{Hourly rate of Bob} \times \text{Weekly hours of Bob} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Weekly earnings of Bob} = \$22 \times 35 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Weekly earnings of Bob} = \$770 \][/tex]

Thus, the weekly earnings for Anna are [tex]$720, and for Bob, it is $[/tex]770.

The final results are:
- Anna earns [tex]$720 per week. - Bob earns $[/tex]770 per week.

These calculations help us compare their weekly earnings based on their respective hourly rates and working hours.
