The change in score is 2,700 - (-500) = 3,200 points. Therefore, the correct answer is 3,200 points.
To calculate the change in score, subtract the initial score from the final score.
Final score - Initial score = Change in score
Initial score = −500 points
Final score = 2,700 points
Change in score = 2,700 − (−500) = 2,700 + 500 = 3,200 points
Therefore, the change in score is 3,200 points.
