Nikon coolpix 4600 camera does not turn on?

I loaned my nikon coolpix 4600 camera to my daughter to take on a trip. When she came
back the button to turn on the camera no longer works. Pressing it does not do anything.

she claims that she did not drop it or damage it. But who knows what really happened.

assuming that she did not damage the camera does anyone know what could be the problem?

there are 2 buttons on the back of the camera.
one with a triangle (the play button according to the manual)
and the delete button.

if i press these 2 buttons at the same time the camera turns on, but the lens does not extend.
then by pressing the play button again, by itself, the lens extends.

i tried taking the batteries out for a long time (about 20 minutes) and reinstall them.
but the problem persists.
