From the informations provided within the question, we know that: Maya works for 16 hours at the rate of $6.75 per hour. Maya worked for 3 days in a house sitting without pets for $30 per hour. Maya also worked for 5 days in a house sitting with pets for $40 per hour. Now we have to find out the total income maya made during the month. Firstly Income from per time job for the month = (16 * 6.75) dollars = 108 dollars Income from house sitting without pets for the month = ( 3 * 30) dollars = 90 dollars Income from house sitting with pets for the month = ( 5 * 40) dollars = 200 dollars So the total income made by Maya in the month = (108 + 90 + 200) dollars = 398 dollars So the correct option for this question is option "d".
