Question

In a game, a player earns 100 points for each question answered correctly and earns -30 points for each question answered incorrectly. A player answers 14 questions correctly and 6 questions incorrectly. Write a numeric expression to represent the total number of points the player earmed.

Answer 1

14(100) - 6(30)

Explanation:

If the person earns 100 points for each question answered correctly and they got 14 correct, then you would simply multiply 100 by 14, getting 1400. Then, if they lose 30 points for each question answered incorrectly and they got 6 incorrect, you would do the same thing, getting 180.

If you need to solve this expression, the answer would be 1220. An amazing SAT score! xD (this is only a game, but still a good score)
