Reggie lost 4 spaceships in level 3 of a video game. He lost 30 points for each spaceship. When he completed level 3, he earned a bonus of 350 points. By how much did his score change?

his score changed by 320. to get the answer, just subtract 30 from 350 and you get 320.

He lost 4 spaceships, each subtracting 30 points

4(-30) = -120

On completing, he earned a bonus of 350 points
0 + 350 = 350

Subtract the amount of points he lost from the bonus

350 - 120 = 230

His score has a positive 230, or x (total points he gotten) plus the bonus

x + 230

hope this helps
