The total earning of Avon Edwards is $341.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total hour worked by Avon Edward = 45.5 hrs

Per hour salary = $5

Normal working hours = 40 hrs

Extra hours/ overtime = 45.5- 40 = 5.5 hrs

Tips money = $100

Bonus = 0

Total earning = ?

Given condition can be written in formula as:

W = HR +1.5 VR + B + T

W = (40 * 5 ) + 1.5 * (5.5 * 5) + 0 + 100

W = 200 + 41.25 + 100

W = 341.25

The total earning of Avon Edwards is $341.25.
