Wendy earns $2 for every table she serves plus 20% the total customer order. Define a variable and write an expression to represent the amount of money she earns for one table

The question asks you to write an algebraic expression to represent the amount of money she earns for one table:

$2 (1) + 0.20 (c) = m

She earns $2 per table and she's serving one table, so it would be $2 (1)

+ 0.20 (c), c stands for the customer order

and m would represent the amount of money she earned
