    Each hour you work is already $7.00, without overtime (more than 40 hours a week)

    So if you work 40h and earn $7.00 a week, 40h*$7.00 = $280

    but since you work 50 hours, 10 hours are over time so you earn 1.5*the $7.00 which is $10.50 for those 10 hours

    So $10.50*10h = $105

    So now you add the 280 you already made plus the $105 in over time.

    105+280

    The answer is $385
