2.2.PS-16 Challenge Schools A and B are competing in an academic contest. Correct answers earn 9 points.

Incorrect answers lose 2 points. In the final round, School A gives the same number of correct and

incorrect answers. School B gives no incorrect answers and the same number of correct answers as

School A. School A started the final round with 62 points. School B started with 24. The game ends

with the two schools tied. Let x represent the number of correct answers given by School A in the final

round. Write an equation that models the outcome of the contest. Then find the number of answers

that each school got correct in the final round.

Which equation models the scoring in the final round and the outcome of the contest?

OA. 9x + 2x - 62 = - 9x + 24

OB. 2x-9x + 62 = 9x + 24

OC. 9x - 2x - 62 = 9x + 24

OD. 9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24
