Her pay rate is $13.44 per hour and she receives overtime pay at one and one-half times her regular hourly rate for any hours worked beyond 40 in a week. During the pay period that ended December 31, 2016, Kathy worked 42 hours. Kathy is married and claims three withholding allowances on her W-4 form. Kathy's cumulative earnings prior to this pay period total $29,000.

Analyze:

    If we let x as the number of work hours, we have the equation for her earnings:

    13.44x + (3/2) (13.44x) = 29000

    Solving for x,

    x = 863.10

    Therefore, the overtime pay she earned must be:

    (3/2) (13.44) (863.10) = 17400.10
