In a test (+5) marks are given for every correct answer and (-2) marks are given for every incorrect answer. Radhika answered all the questions and scored 30 marks though she got 10 correct answers. How many incorrect answers had they attempted?

Respuesta :

Answer:

10 incorrect answers

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can say that 5 marks for the number of correct answers minus two marks for the number of incorrect answers is equal to 30 that is the score that Radhika got:

(5*10)-2x= 30, where x is the number of incorrect answers.

Now, you can solve for x:

50-2x=30

50-30=2x

20=2x

x=20/2

x=10

According to this, the answer is that they attempted 10 incorrect answers.
