a basketball player scored 8 pts total during 1st and 2nd quarters of a game. During the 3rd quarter she scored 3 times as many pts as she did in the 4th quarter. Let P = the # of pts the player scored in the 4th quarter. Write and simplify an expression to represent the total # of pts the player scored during the entire game.

To find the total number of points the player scored during the entire game, we need to consider the points scored in each quarter.

Let's start by representing the points scored in the 4th quarter. We are given that the player scored "P" points in the 4th quarter.

In the 3rd quarter, the player scored three times as many points as the 4th quarter. Therefore, the points scored in the 3rd quarter can be represented as 3P.

In the 1st and 2nd quarters, the player scored a total of 8 points. So, the points scored in the 1st and 2nd quarters combined can be represented as 8.

To calculate the total number of points scored in the entire game, we add up the points from each quarter: 8 + 3P + P.

Simplifying the expression, we get:

8 + 3P + P = 8 + 4P

Therefore, the simplified expression to represent the total number of points scored during the entire game is 8 + 4P.

Whatever the hell you think it is u little snot
