John gets paid $6 for each of the first 40 toy cars he makes in a week. For any additional toy cars beyond 40, his pay increases 50%. How much does John get paid in a week in which he makes 48 toy cars?

Respuesta :

The amount John gets paid in a week = $312

Step-by-step explanation:

John gets paid with two different rates

Payment for first 40 cars = ($6 per car)

Different rate for all other cars after those first 40 = ($6 per hour + 50% of $6)

                                                                                   = ($6 + $3) = ($9 per car)

Since he makes 48 cars,  

He gets paid = ($6 x 40 cars)

                      = ($240) + 8 extra cars at $9 per car ($72)  

The amount John gets paid in a week = $312
