Answer:
35 2-point questions, and 15 5-point questions
Assume x 2-points question, so 50-x 5-points question
Total no of points: 2*x+5*(50-x)=145 points
2x+250-5x=145
-3x=-105
x=-105/-3=35 2-points questions
Remaining 50-35=15 5-points questions
ok so i really hope this helped and if it didn't then sorry
There are 30 two-point questions and 20 five-point questions.
What is equation?
In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.
According to questions, Brandon took a 50-question exam worth a total of 160 points.
There were x two-point questions and y five-point questions.
So,[tex]y=50-x[/tex]
Now, according to question, we will get the following equations
[tex]2x+5(50-x)=160[/tex]
⇒[tex]2x+250-5x=160[/tex]
⇒[tex]-3x=-90[/tex]
⇒[tex]x=30[/tex]
[tex]y=50-30\\[/tex]
⇒[tex]y=20[/tex]
Hence, we can conclude that there are are [tex]30[/tex] two-point questions and [tex]20[/tex] five-point questions.
