f = 30t + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

He earns 30 for each hour of work. He earns 170 for 4 hours of work.

4 hours x 30 per hour = 120

This means that the initial fee is 50, and then the 120 for 4 hours.

Thus,

f = 30t + 50

where 30t is the money earned from working t hours and 50 is the added initial fee.
