Marks for correct answer= +5

Marks for incorrect answers= -2

Total marks= 30

Number of correct answers= 10

Marks she got for correct answers= 10*5= 50

Let x be number of incorrect answers Radhika got,

30=50+-2*x

30-50= -2*x

-20=-2x

-20/-2 = x

10= x

Radhika got 10 answers as incorrect.

Total marks Jay scored= -12

Number of correct answers= 4

Marks he scored for correct answers= 4*5= 20

Let the number of incorrect answers be x,

-12=  20-2*x

-12-20= -2x

-32= -2x

-32/-2 = x

16 = x

Jay attempted 16 answers as incorrect.
