Solution

Let's break it down:

  1. Ned got 6 questions wrong, and for each wrong answer, he lost 4 points. So, the total points he lost for the wrong answers is 6 * 4 = 24 points.

  2. He answered a bonus question correctly and earned 10 points.

  3. To find out the total points he received or lost, we subtract the points he lost from the points he gained. So, 10 - 24 = -14 points.

So, Ned lost 14 points overall.
