Answer:

Respuesta :

Answer:

243 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculating the number of posible outcomes:

We have n trials.

Each trial has m possible outcomes.

The total number of outcomes is:

[tex]T = m^{n}[/tex]

In this question:

5 questions, that is, 5 trials, so [tex]n = 5[/tex]

Each question has 3 options(True, false or unanswered). So [tex]m = 3[/tex]

How many ways?

[tex]T = 3^{5} = 243[/tex]

Answer: It can be answered 243 ways
