The second math test was worth half as many points as the first test. Write an expression for the total number of points on the two tests.
Answer (2)
x=x* 2 1 "x" alone is the first test and x( 2 1 ) is the second test
The total number of points from the two tests can be expressed as 2 3 x , where x is the points from the first test. The second test is worth half of the first test's points. By adding both tests, we simplify to arrive at this expression.
