In a game, a player gets 15 points for a correct answer and loses 10 points for an incorrect answer. The expression 15c−10a represents the total for c correct and a incorrect answers. How many points are scored for 24 correct and 11 incorrect answers?(1 point)
which one is right?
The total points scored for 24 correct and 11 incorrect answers is 234 points: 15c−10a = 15(24)−10(11) = 360−110 = 234.

I did this one correctly above this one.
To find the total score for a given number of correct and incorrect answers, you need to substitute the values of c (correct answers) and a (incorrect answers) into the expression 15c - 10a.
Given:
Number of correct answers (c) = 24
Number of incorrect answers (a) = 11
Substitute these values into the expression:
Total score = 15c - 10a
= 15 * 24 - 10 * 11
= 360 - 110
= 250
Therefore, the score for 24 correct and 11 incorrect answers is 250 points.
To find the total points scored for 24 correct and 11 incorrect answers, we can substitute the given values into the expression 15c - 10a.
For 24 correct answers (c = 24), the expression becomes:
15(24) - 10a
And for 11 incorrect answers (a = 11), the expression becomes:
15(24) - 10(11)
Now, we can calculate the total points scored:
15(24) - 10(11) = 360 - 110 = 250
Therefore, the player scores a total of 250 points for 24 correct and 11 incorrect answers.
