    Step-by-step explanation:

    If a person makes $12.00 per hour, and twice that much if they work more than 35 hours in a week, it means for every additional hour above 35 hours that the person works, he will earn 12*2 = 24 hours.

    If the person works for 42 hours, the additional number of hours that he has worked would be

    42 - 35 = 7 hours

    Total amount earned in the first 35 hours would be

    12 * 35 = $420

    Total amount earned in additional 7 hours would be

    24 * 7 = $168

    Total amount that he earned for working for 42 hours that week would be

    420 + 168 = $588
