Answer:
$118.13
Step-by-step explanation:
The given time card shows:
- Morning session: 08:30 - 12:00
- Afternoon session: 12:30 - 17:45
To calculate the total time worked in one day, we need to find the duration of one morning session and one afternoon session, then add them together.
The duration of the morning session is 3 hours 30 minutes.
The duration of the afternoon session is 5 hours 15 minutes.
Therefore, the total time worked in one day is:
[tex]\sf 3\; hours\; 30\; minutes + 5 \;hours \;15 \;minutes = \boxed{\sf 8\; hours \;45 \;minutes}[/tex]
As there are 60 minutes in an hour, 45 minutes represents 0.75 of an hour. So, the total time worked in the day is 8.75 hours.
To calculate the day's pay given the wage is $13.50/hour, we multiply the total time worked by the hourly wage:
[tex]\sf Pay = 8.75\; hours \times \$13.50/hour[/tex]
[tex]\sf Pay = \$118.125[/tex]
[tex]\sf Pay =\$118.13\; (nearest \;cent)[/tex]
Therefore, the day's pay, rounded to the nearest cent, is:
[tex]\huge\boxed{\boxed{\sf \$118.13}}[/tex]
