Answer:

d. $398

Step-by-step explanation:

Earnings from Part-Time Job:

Maya works 16 hours per month at $6.75 per hour.

Total earnings from her part-time job = 16 · 6.75 = $108

Earnings from House Sitting:

For house-sitting with no pets, Maya charges $30 per day.

She house-sat for 3 days without pets, so earnings = 3 · $30 = $90

For house-sitting with pets, Maya charges $40 per day.

She house-sat for 5 days with pets, so earnings = 5 · 40 = $200

Total Earnings for the Month:

108 + 90 + 200 = $398

So, the answer is d. $398.
