The given equation is:
t = 7 + 5q
where:
t is the total number of points
q is the questions answered correctly

We are given that the total of correct answers is 6 and we want to find the total number of points. Therefore, all we have to do is substitute with the number of answers in the given equation to get the total points as follows:
t = 7 + 5q
t = 7 + 5(6)
t = 7 + 30
t = 37 points

If six questions are answered correctly, the team is awarded thirty points, because six times five is thirty. When added to the seven points they started with, the team's total score is thirty seven.
