Curtis plays a trivia game he earns 2 points for each correct answer and loses 0.25 points for each incorrect answer he get 21 correct points answers and 4 incorrect answers. What is his score for the game?

41

Step-by-step explanation:

Curtis is playing a trivia game.

Number of points earned for each correct answer = 2

Number of points lost for each correct answer = 0.25

Given that:

Number of correct answers given by Curtis = 21

Number of wrong answers given by Curtis = 4

To find:

Total score of the game by Curtis?

Solution:

First of all, let us find the points earned by correct answers.

Points earned by correct answers = Number of correct answers multiplied by Points earned on one correct answer.

Points earned by correct answers = 21 2 = 42

Now, let us find the points to be lost by wrong answers.

Points lost by wrong answers = Number of wrong answers multiplied by Points lost on one correct answer.

Points lost by wrong answers = 4 0.25 = 1

The score of the game can be calculated by subtracting the points lost from the points earned.

Score = 42 - 1 = 41

(23*2)-12=x     x=34

step-by-step explanation:

multiplication is multiplication.   it might feel harder depending on what level of math you are in, but generally it will be the same old stuff, while implementing some new concepts and methods of solving work.
