The garden club earned $15 per hour by weeding neighborhood gardens for t hours.

A generous donor has agreed to double their earnings.

Double their earnings means we multiply by 2

So earning 15 per hour becomes 2*15 = 30 per hour

Given the number of hours is t

Earnings = $30 times number of hours

Earnings = 30 * t

Given that earning for 1 hour by weeding neightborhoods garden = $15

Then earning for 2 hours by weeding neightborhoods garden = $15*2= $30

Then earning for 3 hours by weeding neightborhoods garden = $15*3

Using same pattern earning for t hours by weeding neightborhoods garden = $15*t= $15t

Not it says that earning is doubled means you are getting 2*15 or $30 per hour

then new earning will be $30t in place of $15t

Hence final answer is $30t.
