    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
