Central High School plays Eastern High School in a basketball game. Eastern had double the score of Central before Central scored a three-pointer as the game ended.The variable, c, represents Central's score before the three-pointer. Express the total points scored in the game as a variable expression. Check all that apply.2c + c3c + 32c + 32c + c – 32c – c + 32c + c + 3

Answer
A
2c + c
B
3c + 3
C
2c + 3
D
2c + c – 3
E
2c – c + 3
F
2c + c + 3

Explanation

Central had c points before making the final three-pointer, so its final score was c + 3. Eastern had twice Central’s earlier score, or 2c. The total was 2c + (c + 3) = 3c + 3, so both 3c + 3 and 2c + c + 3 are correct.
