A student gets paid to sell food and drinks at the school play during

intermission. He earns an hourly rate of $12, plus an extra $0.50 for each
bakery item he sells and $0.25 for each drink he sells. If h = hours, b = bakery
items, and d = drinks, what function can he use to calculate his earnings?

Answer:

12h+0.50b+0.25d= total

Explanation:

if twelve is the hourly rate, then you would multiply that by the number of hours worked.

0.50 is the amount he is getting paid for bakery items so that sould be multiplied by the amount of bakery items baught.

the same would go for the drinks.
