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.
write an equation to determine the total number of questions (q) on tim's math test.
find the total number of questions on his math test.

Total number of questions, q, is 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of wrong questions he solved = 10,

Let q be the total number of questions,

∵ All questions are attempted,

So, the correct answer questions = total questions - wrong answer questions = q - 10,

Now, the score for each correct answer = 4 points,

Total points = 76,

If there is no penalty for wrong answer,

Then the correct answer questions =

Which is the required equation to determine the total number of questions (q) on Tim's math test.

By solving,

Hence, the total number of questions are 29.

there are no figures how am i supposed to answer this question

step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
