Asked by Mbappe

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.
Answered by Mbappe
Would it be something like this:

a. c= # coins
p= points
p=10c

b. p= 3(10c)

The wording is confusing me.
Answered by bobpursley
It is confusing, and poorly worded. I wonder how many stars are allowed, if more than one, then
p=3^n *10c where n is the number of stars allowed.
