Problem 3

In a video game, Clare scored 50% more points than Tyler. If \(c\) is the number of points that Clare scored and \(t\) is the number of points that Tyler scored, which equations are correct? Select all that apply.

\(c = 1.5t\)
\(c = t + 0.5\)
\(c = t + 0.5t\)
\(c = t + 50\)
\(c = (1 + 0.5)t\)
