Question

Tim answered all the questions on his math test but got 101010 answers wrong. He received 444 points for every correct answer, and there was no penalty for wrong answers. His score was 767676 points. Write an equation to determine the total number of questions (q)(q)(, q, )on Tim's math test.

Answer 1

Answer:

4(q - 10) = 76.

q = 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of questions be q.

The number Tim got right is therefore q - 10 questions.

4(q - 10) = 76

4q - 40 = 76

4q = 116

q = 116/4

q = 28.

Answer 2

Answer:

q = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

4(q -10) = 76
