There are 38 five point questions and 30 two points questions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Worth of points in test = 250
Number of questions = 68
Let,
x represent the number of 5 points questions
y represent the number of 2 points question
According to given statement;
x+y=68 Eqn 1
5x+2y=250 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 3
Putting x=38 in Eqn 1
There are 38 five point questions and 30 two points questions.

Answer:
It will take the apprentice 24 days working alone
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of days it takes the apprentice be x
It will take the landscaper x/3 ( since he is three times faster)
The rate for both will be 60/6 = 10 sq m per day
Rate for apprentice is 60/x
rate for the boss is 60/x/3 = 180/x
Adding the rates together;
60/x + 180/x = 10
240/x = 10
240 = 10x
x = 240/10
x = 24 days
