Answer 1

Answer: a.) A rate of pay for hours worked exceeding 40 hours

Explanation:

Just like in the NBA or any sport there can be a section of overtime when the clock runs out and both sides are tied. In this problem overtime means that george can work more than he has to in order to make more money. The key word "exceeding" is just a synonym for more so that's how they try to trick you
