You earn 10 points for every coin you collect in a video game.Then you find a star that triples your score.
Write an expression for the number of points you earn from the points.Simplify an expression for the total number of points you can earn.
# coins = c
points = p
point for star = 3p
p = 10c
10c+3p
How would one solve this?
You earn 10 points for every coin you collect in a video game. Then you find a star that triples your score.
a. Write an expression for the number of points you earn from the coins.
b. Write and simplify an expression for the total number of points you earn.
You play video games online.
When you sign up with the game site, you get 400 points.
You earn 50 more points for each hour that you play.
How many hours do you have to play to get to 1,000 points?
To write an expression for the number of points you earn from the coins, you can use the following equation:
Number of coins collected × Points earned per coin = Total points earned from coins
Let's use the variable "C" to represent the number of coins collected and "P" to represent the points earned per coin. The expression for the number of points earned from the coins would be:
C × P
Next, to account for the star that triples your score, you'll need to multiply the total points earned from the coins by 3:
3 × (C × P)
This expression represents the total number of points you can earn in the video game considering both the coins collected and the effect of the star.
