Question

Jon and Lexi are playing a marble game. According to their rules, 4 points are awarded for each red marble collected and 2 points are awarded for each blue marble collected. Which expression represents Jon's total score if he has r red marbles and b blue marbles?

Answer 1

4r+2b=x

Answer 2

This is just me being picky. The question asks for an expression not an equation, so the answer should be: 4r+2b with no equal x on the end. Like i said i doubt that it would matter since both arrive at roughly same answer, but its important to give the answer in the correct form.
