If part-time employee Scott Smith is paid $10.00 per hour on weekdays (Monday-Friday), and $11.00 per hour on weekends, and November 1st is a Monday, how much should he be paid for the week of November 1st through November 7th?

$160.00
$200.00
$204.00
$240.00

The correct answer is: $204.00

Scott Smith worked a total of 40 hours this week (8 hours each day from Monday to Friday). Option A is incorrect because it does not take into account the higher weekend rate for Saturday and Sunday. Option B is incorrect because it does not factor in the different hourly rates for weekdays and weekends. Option D is incorrect because it assumes Scott worked 20 hours on weekdays and 20 hours on weekends, which is not the case. Therefore, option C is correct because it takes into account the different hourly rates for weekdays and weekends, resulting in a total pay of $204.00 for the week.
