We have been given that the garden club earned $15 per hour by weeding neighborhood gardens for t hours.

Let us write an expression for club's earning for weeding neighborhood gardens for t hours.


\text{Garden club's earning after weeding gardens for t hours}=15\cdot t

We are told that a generous donor has agreed to double their earnings. Now let us write an expression for increased earnings of club.


\text{Club's  earning after donor doubled it}=2\cdot(15t)


\text{Club's  earning after donor doubled it}=30t

Therefore, expression representing garden club's total earning will be
30t
