Shana took a test with 50 questions. She lost 2 points for each of the 5 questions she got wrong. She got all 3 extra credit questions correct and received 5 points for each. What is the total number of points she gained or lost overall?

Respuesta :

Answer:

She gained 5 points in overall

Step-by-step explanation:

Shana lost points for each wrong question = 2

So, She lost points for 5 wrong questions =[tex]2 \times 5[/tex]

She lost points for 5 wrong questions = 10 points

Now, She gained points for each correct question = 5

So, She gained points for 3 correct questions =[tex]5 \times 3[/tex]

She gained points for 3 correct questions =15

So, Overall gain = 15-10 = 5

She gained 5 points in overall

Hence the total number of points gained by her is 5 points
