4 0
Let x = number of problems on test
If he got 14 wrong, then x - 14 is the number correct.
\frac{x-14}{x} = .72

x - 14 = .72x
.28x - 14 = 0
.28x = 14
x = 50

The test consisted of 50 problems.

kobusy [5.1K]
The total cost that a customer should incur in its dealings with company A should be, 
                              c = 50t + 100

Thus, the answer is the fourth choice.
