Responses
p=10t−15
p equals 10 t minus 15
p=10t+15
p equals 10 t plus 15
t=10p+15
t equals 10 p plus 15
p=25t

To determine how much Jax can earn, we can break down his earnings:
- He charges a base fee of $15.
- He charges an additional $10 for each hour worked (denoted as \(t\)).
So the total amount Jax earns (which we can denote as profit, \(p\)), can be represented with the equation:
\[ p = 10t + 15 \]
Thus, the correct response is:
**p = 10t + 15**
- He charges a base fee of $15.
- He charges an additional $10 for each hour worked (denoted as \(t\)).
