Question

Kyle has created a video game called Falling Stars in which the player zaps stars from the sky. A certain number of stars must be zapped before the player can move on to the next level. Each zapped star is worth the same number of points on each level. The table shows how many stars will need to be zapped and the points that can be earned at each level.

Without extending the table, Kyle wants to know how many stars will need to be zapped in Level 30. Which expression can be used to help Kyle find the answer? How many stars will need to be zapped in Level 30?

A) 5(30) + 40; 190 stars
B) 5(40) + 25; 225 stars
C) (30 + 5) + 40; 75 stars
D) 5(30 - 5) + 40; 165 stars

Answer 2

the answer is D) 5(30 - 5) + 40; 165 stars

Explanation:

because you multiply the number of levels between Level 30 and Level 5 by 5 stars per level. Add the number of stars needed in Level 5.

5(30 - 5) + 40

5(25) + 40

165 stars
