Answer 1

We have the expression 12h+30w to represent an employees salary.

h represents the number of hours worked

w represents the number of wagons sold

To find the answer, simply insert the numbers given where their corresponding variables are in the expression.

12(6 hours) + 30(3 wagons)

(12*6) + (30*3)

72 + 90 = 162

So the employee earns $162
