This equation shows how the total score in a game is related to the number of points scored per level. s=100l+250. The variable l represents the levels completed, and the variable s represents the total score. What is the total score after completing 3 levels?
Q. This equation shows how the total score in a game is related to the number of points scored per level. s=100l+250. The variable l represents the levels completed, and the variable s represents the total score. What is the total score after completing 3 levels?
Identify value for l: Identify the value for l. We know l=3 because 3 levels are completed.
Plug in value for l: Plug in the value for l into the equation s=100l+250. So, s=100×3+250.
Calculate total score: Calculate the total score. s=100×3+250=300+250.
Add up scores: Add up the scores. s=300+250=550. So, the total score after 3 levels is 550.
