The regular pay amount can be calculated as
[tex]p=\text{ earns per hour}\cdot\text{ hours}[/tex]
Therefore, for 40 hours we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} p=16.1\cdot40 \\ \\ p=\$644 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Now we must calculate the overtime pay, it will be
[tex]\text{ overtime pay}=\text{ earns per hour}\cdot\text{ hours in overtime }\cdot1.5[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]\begin{gathered} OP=16.1\cdot15\cdot1.5 \\ \\ OP=\$362.25 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]
And the gross payment will be the sum
[tex]\text{ gross }=\$1006.25[/tex]
Final answer:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ regular pay amount = \$644} \\ \text{ overtime pay = \$362.25 } \\ \text{ gross = \$1006.25} \end{gathered}[/tex]
