Question 17 • POP Financial Math 26/27

Maya works 16 hours per month at her part-time job earning $6.75 per hour. She earns some additional money house sitting for neighbors and friends. Maya charges $30 per day to house sit if there are no pets. If the house sitting includes pets, then she charges $40 per day. Last month, Maya spent 3 days house sitting with no pets and 5 days house sitting with pets. What is the total amount of earnings Maya had for the month?

Answer
A
$270
B
$290
C
$378
D
$398

Explanation

Maya earned 16 × $6.75 = $108 at her part-time job. House sitting brought in 3 × $30 = $90 for homes without pets and 5 × $40 = $200 for homes with pets, totaling $290. Her total earnings were $108 + $290 = $398, so the correct choice is $398.
