document.write( "Question 1070055: On a math test the total number of points possible is 120. There are 44 questions on the test. Questions are worth one point, three points or five points. The number of three point questions is ten less than twice the number of one point questions. How many five point questions are on the test? (Note: guess and check or a table is not acceptable…must set up and solve algebraically). \n" ); document.write( "
