[Please help with this question and please explain.

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a linear equation ( y = mx + b)

m = the rate at which it increases

b = the amount they start with

x = the number of correct answers

so the equation is y = 3x + 2

to find y, you just plug in x

ex:

when x = 3

y = 3(3) + 2

y = 9 + 2

y = 11

to find the x value when you have a y value you plug in the y to solve for x

ex:

when y = 29

29 = 3x + 2

27 = 3x

x = 27/3

x = 9

50=33x+22

step-by-step explanation:

your answer would be 10x - 1
