d)3404.96

Solution:

1. Total time for which Rick worked = 49 hours

→Amount got by Rick by working for 49 hours = $13.40 per hour for 40 hours + Overtime for (49-40) hours

→Amount got by Rick by working for 49 hours = $40 × 13.40 +  Overtime for  9 hours=  $536 + Some Amount

= Option (D) $ 716.90 is correct choice as gross pay of Rick.

2. Weekly salary of Maratha = $ 1428

Commission = 4 %

So, gross income = 1428 ×( 1 + )

                =  1428 × 1.04

               = 1485. 12 →→Option (A)
