Answer:

84 points

y= 100-2x where y= total score (0 through 100) and x= # of questions wrong (0 through 50)

Step-by-step explanation:

100- 2(8) = y

100-16 = y

84=y

Since each question (x) is worth two points (2) we have to multiply each wrong question by two (2x). And then since we're deducting point from the possible points (100) we have to subtract (100-2x)
