Adrienne's total earnings would be $708 after considering her regular income and overtime pay and rounding to the nearest dollar.

Adrienne's earnings can be calculated using her hourly rate and overtime rate.

For the first 40 hours, she would earn 40 hours * $14.24/hour = $569.60.

As Adrienne worked for 46.5 hours, she worked 6.5 hours overtime. T

he overtime wage is 1.5 times her normal hourly wage. So her overtime pay will be 6.5 hours * (1.5 * $14.24/hour) = $138.72.

By adding her regular income and her overtime pay, we can calculate her total earnings.

Adrienne's total earning would be $569.60 (regular income) + $138.72 (overtime pay) = $708.32.

Round it to the nearest dollar, her earnings is $708.
