Question

Tamara has decided to start saving for spending money for her first year of college. Her money is currently in a large suitcase under her bed, modeled by the function s(x) = 450. She is able to babysit to earn extra money and that function would be a(x) = 6(x − 2), where x is measured in hours. Explain to Tamara how she can create a function that combines the two, and describe any simplification that can be done. (10 points)
