Answer:

$16.5/h

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Marcus 's starting wage for his new job=$9/h

Each month his hourly wage increased by=$0.75

We have to find the hourly rate be in his 11th month on the job.

To find his hourly rate be in his  11th month on the job we will multiply 0.75 by 10 and add to $9.

Multiply 0.75 and 10

[tex]0.75\times 10=[/tex]$7.5

His hourly increase wage of 11th month=$7.5

Total hourly rate of his 11th month=$9+$7.5

Total hourly rate of his 11th month=$16.5

Hence,option D is true.
