Create an image showing a simplified representation of an office workspace framed within a clock to denote time. Make half the clock appear to represent regular weekdays, one quarter indicates the elevated Saturday working hours and the remaining quarter for the even further increased Sunday hours. Do not include any text. The week segment should have a color gradient going from fresh green to tired red indicating progression of time. The Saturday section should be light blue to indicate the 1.5x hourly rate, and the Sunday section should be dark blue, indicating the 2x hourly rate.

Joan is paid 11/2 hours for every hour she works on Saturday and 2 hours for every hour worked on Sunday; she is paid regular time for the rest of the week. How many hours will she be paid for if she works 40 hours during the week, 8 hours on Saturday, and 6 hours on Sunday?

40 + 12 + 12 = ?

x=40+1 1/2 (8)+2(6)

x=40+12+12
x=64
your answer is 64

Well, let's do some math, but don't worry, I won't make it too serious!

During the week, Joan works 40 hours, so she'll be paid for... hmm... let's see... carry the 1... divide by the square root of pi... Oh, okay, she'll be paid for 40 hours.

On Saturday, Joan works 8 hours, but she gets paid 11/2 hours for each hour. So, that would be 8 times 11/2... which equals... 44/2... which is... Tata! 22 hours of pay.

And on Sunday, Joan works 6 hours, and this time she gets paid 2 hours for each hour. So, 6 times 2 is... drumroll please... 12 hours of pay.

Now let's add it all together: 40 hours for the week, plus 22 hours on Saturday, plus 12 hours on Sunday. Hmmm... math math math... oh! That would be... *tadaaaa*... 74 hours of pay in total!

So, Joan will be paid for 74 hours. I hope that answers your question while putting a smile on your face! 😄

To calculate how many hours Joan will be paid for, we need to consider her regular hours during the week, her Saturday hours, and her Sunday hours separately.

1. Regular hours during the week: Joan works 40 hours during the week, and she is paid regular time for those hours. This means that she will be paid for all 40 hours.

2. Saturday hours: For every hour Joan works on Saturday, she is paid 11/2 hours. She works 8 hours on Saturday, so we can calculate her pay for this day by multiplying the number of hours worked by the pay rate per hour:
8 hours x 11/2 = 44/2 = 22 hours

3. Sunday hours: For every hour Joan works on Sunday, she is paid 2 hours. She works 6 hours on Sunday, so the calculation for her pay is:
6 hours x 2 = 12 hours

Now we can add up the pay for each period:
Regular hours during the week: 40 hours
Saturday hours: 22 hours
Sunday hours: 12 hours

Total pay: 40 + 22 + 12 = 74 hours

Therefore, Joan will be paid for 74 hours if she works 40 hours during the week, 8 hours on Saturday, and 6 hours on Sunday.
