Part A:
Sunday newspaper: Start at $36 and add $4.
Saturday newspaper: Start at $12 and add $2.50.
Part B:
To compute his total earnings after delivering 15 papers on each day, we can calculate separately for the Sunday and Saturday papers and then add them together.
Sunday papers: $36 + ($4 x 15) = $36 + $60 = $96
Saturday papers: $12 + ($2.50 x 15) = $12 + $37.50 = $49.50
Total earnings: $96 + $49.50 = $145.50
