Answer:

10 incorrect answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct answer = +3

Incorrect answer = - 1

Mark scored = 20

Number of correct answers = 10

Let:

Incorrect answers = y

Hence, we can fashion out the expression for total score :

(Number of correct answers * score per Correct answer + number of incorrect * score per incorrect) = total score

(10 * 3) + (y * - 1) = 20

30 - y = 20

-y = 20 - 30

-y = - 10

y = 10

What is the value of x in the equation (x-2/3)+(1/60)=(5/6)
Roman55 [17]
<span>(x-2/3)+(1/60)=(5/6)
x-2/3= 5/6 - 1/60
x-2/3 = 49/60
x - 2 = 49/20
x = 49/20 + 2
x = 89/20

The answer is: x = 89/20 or x = 4.45.
