Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate earnings for first 150 parts

$150\times0.35 = 52.5$ (dollars)

Step2: Calculate number of parts over 150

$210 - 150=60$

Step3: Calculate earnings for parts over 150

$60\times0.40 = 24$ (dollars)

Step4: Calculate total earnings

$52.5+24 = 76.5$ (dollars)

Answer:
