Answer:

q-10=\frac{76}{4}

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 = \frac{\text{Total score}}{\text{score for each correct answer}}

=\frac{76}{4}

\implies q - 10 =\frac{76}{4}

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

By solving,

q-10=19\implies q = 19 +10 = 29

Hence, the total number of questions are 29.

I THINK this is how you do it:

4q=76
q=19

19+10 (wrong answers)=29

There was 29 questions in Tim’s test.
