Answer:
Total number of points in the test = 100
Total number of items in the test = 40
Let number of items of 2 points be x and number of items of 3 points be y.
Now, using the given information the situation can be represented by using the following equations :
⇒ x + y = 40 .........(1)
⇒ 2x + 3y = 100 .........(2)
The matrix equation is :
By solving the equation (1) and equation (2), we get :
Solution : x = 20 and y = 20
