- Over 200 boots: $6.00 each

What is Mindy's pay if she produced 192 boots for the week?

A. $602.30
B. $702.90
C. $1,152.00
D. $620.30
E. None of these

Answer :

Mindy's pay depends on the number of boots she produced. According to the given pay scale, we can break down her pay as follows:

For the first 50 boots, Mindy earns $1.65 per boot. So, for the first 50 boots, her pay is 50 * $1.65 = $82.50.

For the next 100 boots (51-150), Mindy earns $3.30 per boot. So, for these 100 boots, her pay is 100 * $3.30 = $330.

For the next 50 boots (151-200), Mindy earns $4.95 per boot. So, for these 50 boots, her pay is 50 * $4.95 = $247.50.

In total, Mindy has produced 200 boots so far, and her pay for these boots is $82.50 + $330 + $247.50 = $660.

Now, for the remaining 192 - 200 = -8 boots (less than 200), Mindy earns $6.00 per boot. Since she hasn't produced any additional boots beyond 200, we don't need to consider this part.

Therefore, Mindy's pay for producing 192 boots is $660 (according to the breakdown above).

So, the correct answer is E. None of these.
