Two step equations word problems

Tim answered all the questions on his math test but got 10 answers wrong. He received 4 points for every correct answer, and there was no penalty for wrong answers. His score was 76 points.

1. Write an equation to determine the total number of questions (q) on Tim's math test.

2. Find the total number of questions on his math test.

Respuesta :

Let the number of accurate answers provided by Tom equal x.

The number of incorrect responses is ten.

Tim receives 4 marks for each right answer.

Marks deducted for wrong answers = 0.

Total Points = 76

When all of the above statements are combined, the equation

76 = 4 x + 10 * 0

4 x = Equals 76.

19 = x

The number of correct answers is 19

The number of incorrect responses equals ten.

Total number of questions = 19 + 10 = 29
