Question

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?

Answer 1

x

=400 hope this helps

Answer 2

The value of k is 400 points.

If the player fails to complete 100 tasks, then they lost 200 points. At the end of the game, they had 200 points.

We can write and solve the following equation to determine where they started.

x - 200 = 200
x = 400
