Matthew works 45 hours at $22.10 per hour and 3 hours overtime at double time. Calculate his total earnings per week.

If Matthew gets 3 hours overtime, then his regular time is 45 - 3 = 42

Calculate regular hours earnings:
Regular hours earnings = Hourly Rate * Regular hours worked
Regular hours earnings = 22.10 * 42
Regular hours earnings = 928.20

Calculate overtime hours earnings:
Double time = twice the regular hourly ratre
Overtime hours earnings = Hourly Rate * 2 * Overtime hours worked
Overtime hours earnings = 22.10 * 2 * 3
Overtime hours earnings = 132.60

Calculate total earnings:
Total earnings = Regular hours earnings + Overtime hours earnings
Total earnings = 928.20 + 132.60
Total earnings = $1,060.80
