The question is asking us to calculate how much did Jan Quint earn last week. We know that she earns $7.00 an hour and that she worked 40 hours of regular time, 9 hours of overtime, and 12 hours of holiday. For a regular time: 40 * 7.00 = $280. For overtime: 1.5 * 9 * 7.00 = $94.5. For holiday time: 2 * 12 * 7.00 = $168. And in total: $280 + $94.50 + $168 = $542.50. Answer: A) $542.50.
