C=r+s(t3)

Explanation:

The cost C of the call will be r cents for the initial 3 minutes plus the time t multiplied by the rate s.

Since you have already paid for the first three minutes, that time will need to be deducted from the overall time t before it is multiplied by the rate s.

So if t>3, your cost will be: #C=r+s(t-3)

Example: t=5,r=$3,s=$2

C=$3+$2(53)=$3+$2×2=$3+$4=$7
