Answer 1

If he answered 3 questions correctly, then the number of questions is got wrong is 7 and the number of questions that he did not attempt is 5.

What is the linear system?

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one. It might have one, two, or even more variables.

In a class test of 15 questions, (+4) marks are given for every correct answer, (– 2) marks are given for every incorrect answer, and 0 marks are given for questions that are not attempted. Punit scored (– 2) marks.

If he answered 3 questions correctly, then the number of the question are got wrong and the number of the question that he did not attempt.

Let x be the correct question and y be the incorrect question, z be the number of questions that he did not attempt, and A be the number of the total score. Then we have

4x – 2z = A

x + y + z = 15

If A = -2 and x = 3, then we have

4 × 3 – 2z = -2

      12 + 2 = 2z

              z = 7

Then the value of y will be

3 + y + 7 = 15

           y = 5
