In a multiple choice examination of 20 questions, four marks are given for each correct answers and one mark is deducted for each wrong answer. There is no penalty for not attempting a question. a candidate attempts "a" questions and get "c" correct. Write down, and simplify, an expression for the candidate's total mark in terms of "a" and "c".

Total Mark = 5c - a

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Mark = 4c - (a - c) = 5c - a

Marks for correct questions = 4c

Marks deducted for incorrect questions = a - c

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1

whats the question?
