Answer:

D) $533.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • $19.75/hr hourly rate payment
  • 4 hours on Monday
  • 6 hours on Tuesday
  • 5 hours on Wednesday
  • 5 hours on Thursday
  • 7 hours on Friday

To find the gross pay (total payment) of Charles Smith, we can multiply the hours worked per weekday by the hourly rate and then add the total hours.

Monday

4 • 19.75 = $79

Tuesday

6 • 19.75 = $118.5

Wednesday

5 • 19.75 = $98.75

Thursday

5 • 19.75 = $98.75

Friday

7 • 19.75 = $138.25

Lastly, adding the amount paid for the hours worked each day together

$(79 + 118.5 + 98.75 + 98.75 + 138.25)

= $533.25

Therefore, Charles Smith gross pay is equivalent to $533.25
