Answer:

- 15 points

Explanation:

For each question answered correctly, they earn 5 points and for each incorrect response, they lose five points.

Therefore, the score after answering the wrong one will reduce by 5 points.

Let us assume that the initial score of Jason is zero and he answers three questions incorrectly.

Therefore, Jason's final score will be [0 - (5 Ă— 3)] = - 15 points. (Answer)
