There are 50 questions to answer in a trivia contest. Each player starts with 100 points. He or she earns 10 points for each correct answer but loses 4 points with each incorrect answer. Each player must answer all 50 questions. What is the fewest number of questions a contestant must answer to get a score over 350?

I just need to know how to set it up?

Sagot :

25 questions , because they start with 100. 350-100=250 .. 250/10=25

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the fewest number you would have to answer to get 350 would be 25.

to get the fewest number you would not be able to miss any before reaching 350 points. since you are aiming for a minimum of 350 points and you start out with 100 you would divide 250 by 10 to get 25
