 a. Before the game ends, lee answers a 275 point question correctly, a 70 point question correctly, and a 50 point question incorrectly. write and find the value of an expression to find lee's final score

Answer 1

1st) 275+70-50      Lastly: Subtract  -350 - 295 = - 55
       
 275+70 = 345        The answer is - 55

345 - 50 = 295

Answer 2

Answer: The required expression,

$-350+275+70-50$

Lee's final score is -55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The current score of Lee = - 350 points,

Now, he answered 275 point question correctly,

∴ Score he gained = + 275 points,

Again he answered 70 point question correctly,

∴ score he gained = + 70

Finally, he answer 50 point question incorrectly,

∴ Score he gained = - 50 points,

So, the total gaining in score = 275 + 70 - 50

Therefore,

Final score = Current score + Gaining scores = -350+275+70-50 = -55
