Answer:

  $887.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Her gross pay is the sum of the pay amounts for each of the hour amounts:

  pay = 40(12.50) +18(12.50)(1.5) +2(12.50)(2)

  = (12.50)(40 +18(1.5) +2(2)) = 12.50(40 +27 +4) = 12.50(71)

  pay = 887.50

Barbara's gross pay for the week was $887.50.

good job
