Question

the odd numbered regions will add one point. the even numbered regions lose one point. red will add one point. any other color will lose one point. a number less than or equal to 3 will add one point. a 4 will lose two points. odds will add a point value equal to the number on the space. evens will lose a point value equal to the number on the space.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze each option

For the first option: There are 2 odd - numbered regions (1 and 3) and 2 even - numbered regions (2 and 4). The net change in points is \(2\times1+2\times(- 1)=0\).
For the second option: There is 1 red region and 3 non - red regions. The net change in points is \(1\times1 + 3\times(-1)=1 - 3=-2\).
For the third option: There are 3 numbers less than or equal to 3 and 1 number equal to 4. The net change in points is \(3\times1+1\times(-2)=3 - 2 = 1\).
For the fourth option: The odd numbers are 1 and 3, so the points added from odd numbers are \(1 + 3=4\). The even numbers are 2 and 4, so the points lost from even numbers are \(2+4 = 6\). The net change in points is \(4-6=-2\).

Answer:

A number less than or equal to 3 will add one point. A 4 will lose two points.
