Answer:

$75 + $17.50t

$56 + $19.50t

Explanation:

Let us assume the number of hours be t

Now according to the equation

For Joe

= $75 + $17.50t

And, for Maddie

= $56 + $19.50t

The expression that represents the total is as

$75 + $17.50t

$56 + $19.50t

Hence, the above represent the answer and the same is relevant
