Dana is playing a game where she loses 75 points every time she rolls an even number. Then she rolls an even number on her first 5 rolls of the game. What number represents the number of points Dana has on her first 5 rolls?

Answer :

CATSETTIGO

Answer:

Dana has -375. We can determine this by the formula t = c - 75e, where t is her total points, c is her current points before her most recent dice roll(s), and e is the number of even numbered rolls she got.

By putting e at 5 because she rolled 5 evens and c at 0 because these are her first rolls, we can determine her total points (t). After plugging in the numbers, the formula looks like this:

t = 0 - 75(5)

Next, we multiply 75 by 5. By plugging the answer in we get; t = 0 - 375. By subtracting 375 from zero, we find that t = -375

Dana's total points are -375 after 5 dice rolls.
