Question

Sonia has completed 14 levels of a video game and has 9 points so far in her level. If Sonia has a total of 331 points, which equation can be used to find the number of points she eared for completing each level?

Answer 1

To find the equation that can be used to determine the number of points Sonia earned for completing each level, you can set up a linear equation.

Let's denote the number of points Sonia earned for completing each level as "x."

She has completed 14 levels, and for each level, she earned "x" points, so the total points she has so far can be calculated as:

Total points = 14x + 9

Given that Sonia has a total of 331 points, you can set up the equation as follows:

331 = 14x + 9

Now, you can solve this equation for "x" to find the number of points she earned for completing each level.
