$200+$15h=t

h=numbers of hours worked.
t=Total

He gets 200 just by showing up so u add that to the 15 dollars he gets per hour.
You × the 15 by h to get the total for working those hours

Hopefully this help!

Let H = number of hours worked.

He gets $15 for every hour worked, so you need to multiply 15 by h which is written as 15h

You then need to add that to the $200 he gets for showing up.

Total pay = 15h + 200
