Question: Ned took a test with 25 questions. He lost 4 points for each of the 6 questions he got wrong and earned an additional

10 points for answering a bonus question correctly. How many points did Ned receive or lose overall?
My Thoughts: 6(-4)+10=-14; lost 14 points

What I'm confused on: I need a confirmation for my thoughts first. I need to you to break down the question for me. Lastly, I want to understand why the number of questions he DID get correctly doesn't play a role in the math problem. Thanks!

Your thoughts are correct; Ned loses 14 points overall.

The reason the correctly answered questions do not factor into the answer is because that is not what the question is asking. Correct answers are not even mentioned :)

If each Question is 4 points as he lost 4 point for each question, then
total points =25 ×4=100
lost point=6×4=34
100-34=66 points received

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

507,409

Step-by-step explanation:

if every 5 days the number quadruples (x4), and we want to know how many acorns fall after 30 days, we can divide 30 by 5 so we only have to calculate for the amount of time the take to quadruple.

30 ÷ 5 = 6

so we only have to quadruple the acorns 6 times.

if we start off with 124 acorns, this is what it will look like:

Day 0: 124 acorns

Day 5: 124 x 4 = 496 acorns

Day 10: 496 x 4 = 1984 acorns

Day 15: 1984 x 4 = 7936 acorns

etc... until day 30.

Day 30: 507904 acorns

I hope this was helpful :-)

x = 14.55 or 14

rounding down because it can't go over $16.

0.79(14) + 4.5 = $15.56
