Question

Hillel is juggling flaming torches to raise money for charity. His initial appearance raises $500\$500 $500 , and he raises $15\$15 $15 for each minute of juggling performance. The amount RR R of money Hillel raises is a function of tt t , the length of his performance in minutes. Write the function's formula.

R = 500 + 15t

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: R=500+15t

Explanation:

Because the initial value is 500, you do not have to add a variable next to it. This value will always stay the same. When he raises 15 dollars per minute, that gives you 15t, if t stands for a single minute. This way, the function should result in R=500+15t, because 500 cannot change in any way as that is the cost of his appearance, and 15, because it changes for every minute he performs.
