Answer:
Andrew's test score if he got 8 questions wrong = 64 points
Andrew's test score if he got x questions wrong = 80 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Total points of the multiple choice test = 80
Each question = 2 points
Total questions = Total points of the multiple choice test / 2 points
= 80/2
= 40
Total questions = 40
A. What would be Andrew's test score (out of 80) if he got 8 questions wrong
If he got 8 questions wrong out of 40 questions
= Total question points - wrong question points
= 40*2 - 8*2
= 80 - 16
= 64 points
Andrew's test score if he got 8 questions wrong = 64 points
B. What would be his score if he got x questions wrong?
Test points if he got x questions wrong = Total question points - wrong question points
= (40 * 2) - (x * 2)
= 80 - 2x
Andrew's test score if he got x questions wrong = 80 - 2x
