    She makes 7.50 per hour

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x = regular rate

    Time and a half = 1.5x

    40 hours at x

    52-40 = 12

    12 hours at 1.5x

    40x + 12 * 1.5x = 435

    40x + 18x = 435

    58x = 435

    Divide each side by 58

    58x/58 = 435/58

    x = 7.5

    She makes 7.50 per hour
