Question 2
At the fair there are two bean bag toss games. You gain 3/4 of a point for each bean bag that you get on the target and you lose 1/2 point for each bean bag that does not land on the target. Your total amount of points for this game can be represented by 3/4h - 1/2g. In a different bean bag toss game you gain 7/8 points for each bean bag that get on the target and you lose 3/4 points for each bean bag that does not land on the target. Your total amount of points for this game can be represented by 7/8h - 3/4g. You can figure out the total number of points earned by simplifying this expression: (3/4h - 1/2g) + (7/8h - 3/4g). What would this expression be simplified? (Hint: Combine like terms!) (2 points)
