Answer:
5 marks in this test, though she has got 7 correct answers. How many questions has she attempted incorrectly? Therefore, Mohini attempted 13 incorrect questions
Answer:
Total marks = -5
No of correct answers = 7 Marks for correct answers = 7 × 3 = 21
Also, Marks for incorrect answer = (-2) × No. of incorrect answers
Marks for not attempt answer = 0 × No of not attempt answers
Now, Total marks = marks for correct answer + marks for incorrect answer + marks for not attempt -5 = 21 + (-2) × No. of incorrect answers + 0 -5 – 21 = (-2) × No. of incorrect answers -26 = -2 × No. of incorrect answers −26 −2 = No. of incorrect answers 13 = No, of incorrect answers.
∴ Mohini attempted 13 questions incorrectly.
I really hope it helps you
