(Subtracting integers)

Respuesta :

The final score in the video game is 67.

Step-by-step explanation:

Points earned = 50 points, 87 points

Points lost = 40 points, 30 points

Let,

Plus sign (+) represent the points earned.

Negative sign (-) represent the points lost.

Therefore,

Points earned = +50, +70

Points lost = -40, -30

Adding all the points to get final score;

Final score = 50+(-40)+87+(-30)

[tex]Final\ score=50-40+87-30\\Final\ score = 137-70\\Final\ score=67[/tex]

The final score in the video game is 67.
