− | Zelda played the ''Adventures of Math'' game on August 1 and scored <math>1700</math> points. She continued to play daily over the next <math>5</math> days. The bar chart below shows the daily change in her score compared to the day before. (For example, Zelda's score on August 2 was <math>1700 + 80 = 1780</math> points.) What was Zelda's average score in points over the <math>6</math> days?[[File:Screenshot_2024-11-08_1.51.51_PM.png]]

| |
− | Going through the table, we see her scores over the six days were: <math>1700</math>, <math>1700+80=1780</math>, <math>1780-90=1690</math>, <math>1690-10=1680</math>, <math>1680+60=1740</math>, and <math>1740-40=1700</math>.
| |
− | | |
− | Taking the average, we get <math>\frac{(1700+1780+1690+1680+1740+1700)}{6} = \boxed{\textbf{(E) } 1715}.</math>

| |
− | Compared to the first day <math>(1700)</math>, her scores change by <math>+80</math>, <math>-10</math>, <math>-20</math>, <math>+40</math>, and <math>+0</math>. So, the average is <math>1700 + \frac{80-10-20+40+0}{6} = \boxed{\textbf{(E) }1715}</math>.

| |
− | As the scores of each day are dependent on previous days, we get: <math>1700 + \dfrac{0\cdot6 + 80\cdot5 + (-90)\cdot4 + (-10)\cdot3 + 60\cdot2 + (-40)\cdot1}{6} = \boxed{\textbf{(E) }1715}</math>
