Answer:

D. [tex]f(t)=300+0.20t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mikayla is a waitress who makes a guaranteed $50 per day.

Since Miklaya works  6 days per week, so the guaranteed income for one week would be [tex]\$50\times 6=\$300[/tex]  

We are also told that she gets tips of 20% of all her weekly customer receipts, t. So amount earned from tips would be 20% of t, that is [tex]\frac{20}{100}t=0.20t[/tex].

Total amount earned in one week would be guaranteed income for 1 week plus 20% of t:

[tex]300+0.20t[/tex]

Therefore, our required function is [tex]f(t)=300+0.20t[/tex] and option D is the correct choice.
