The expression 2t+3f+4m+10e gives the number of points a student earns on a test when the student correctly answers t true-false questions, f fill-in-the-blank questions, m multiple-choice questions, and e extended-response questions. which statement is not true?
a) the coefficient 2 indicates that each correct true-false question earns 2 points.
b) the coefficient 3 represents the points earned for each fill-in-the-blank question.
c) the term 10e represents the total number of points earned from 10 extended-response questions.
d) the term 4m represents the total number of points earned from m multiple-choice questions worth 4 points per question.

C) The term 10E represents the total number of points earned from 10 extended-response questions

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question;

The expression 2T+3F+4M+10E =points a earns on a test

Number of true-false questions correctly answered=2T

Number of Fill-in -the blank questions correctly answered=3 F

Number of multiple choice questions correctly answered= 4M

Number of extended-resonse questions correctly answered =10 E

However, the question does not mention the number of qusetions in each category. Like how many true-false questions were there. It only tells you the number of correct true-false qusetions that were answered. So saying that there were 10 extended-response questions is incorrect.

C) The term 10E represents the total number of points earned from 10 extended-response questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the statement c) is false, because the term 10E represents the total of points earned form E extended-response questions worth 10 points per question.

The error is that the number 10 does not represent the number of correct question; instead it represents the value per question. The number of correct questions is represented with the variable E.
