Answer

(a) $∑(X+1)$ (b) $∑(X+1)^2$ (c) $(∑X)^2-3$

Work Step by Step

(a) Let $X$ represent any score. So, after adding $1$ point to any score we have $X+1$. Now, make the sum of the results $X+1$: $∑(X+1)$ (b) Let $X$ represent any score. So, after adding $1$ point to any score we have $X+1$. Then square this result $(X+1)^2$. Now, make the sum of the results: $(X+1)^2$: $∑(X+1)^2$ (c) Let $X$ represent any score. Make the sum of all the scores: $∑X$. Now, square this result: $(∑X)^2$. Subtract 3 points: $(∑X)^2-3$
