In a video game, each player starts the game with
k points and loses 2 points each time a task is not
completed. If a player who gains no additional
points and fails to complete 100 tasks has a score of
200 points, what is the value of k ?
A) 0
B) 150
C) 250
D) 400

Respuesta :

The value of k for the given player = 400 option (D).

What is a linear equation?

Linear equation refers to a equation that has highest degree = 1 and can be expressed in the form 'ax + b'.

Given:

  • Initial points of all players = k
  • Points lost for every incomplete task = 2

Now, for a player who:

  1. has not earned any additional points.
  2. has 100 incomplete tasks => loses 200 points.
  3. Final score = 200 points.

The data can be represented by the linear equation:

=> k - 200 = 200

=> k = 200 + 200

=> k = 400

Thus, the player's value of k = 400 (option D), i.e., he/she had 400 points in the beginning.
