Question

To win a trivia game, Negan must score 90 points. Each correct answer is worth 1 3 over 4 points, and each incorrect answer is worth -1 over 4, if he gets 58 questions correct and 22 questions incorrect, does Nevan win? How many points does he score?

Answer 1

Answer:

 Nevan won the game.

 He scored 183 points.

Explanation:

  Correct answer is worth 13/4 points

  Incorrect answer is worth -1/4 points.

  Number of correct answers = 58

  Number of incorrect answers = 22

  Point scored $=58*\frac{13}{4} +22*\frac{-1}{4} =\frac{732}{4} =183$

  Points need to win = 90 points

  Point scored, 183 >Points need to win, 90

  So, Nevan won the game.
