The written portion of bens driving test had 40 questions Ben correctly answered 12 more questions than he missed how many questions did Ben missed. ?!

Respuesta :

We wil name x to the amount of correctly answered questions. Then, we get:

[tex](x-12)+x=40[/tex][tex]2x-12=40[/tex][tex]2x=40+12[/tex][tex]2x=52[/tex][tex]x=\frac{52}{2}[/tex][tex]x=26[/tex]

Ben had 26 correct answers, so he missed 40-26= 14.
