John get paid in a week in which he makes 48 toy cars = $312

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

  • Pay for each first 40 toy cars = $6
  • Pay for each additional toy car = increase in 50% of $6

Step 2 :

50% of $6 = (50/100)[tex]\times[/tex]$6 = $3

Pay for each additional toy car = (50% of $6) + $6

                                                   = $3 + $6 = $9

Step 3 :

Pay for total of 48 cars = pay for 1st 40 cars + pay for additional 8 cars

                                      = $6(40)  +  $9(8)

                                      = $240 + $72

Pay for total of 48 cars = $312
