Hola❤

Points you score each time you guess the correct answer = -5

Points Marna needs to score in order to win the game = -80

So, Number of answers Marna needs to win the game = -80/-5 = 16

Marna must answer 16 questions in order to win the game.

Hope it helps❤

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
