Answer:

22 points

Explanation:

If their are fourty points avaliable and each question is worth two points, then there are a total of twenty questions (20 times 2 is 40). Therefore, if he gets nine questions wrong, he would have gotten 11 right. Because we know that each question is two points, we may just multiply 11 by 2, which means he has gotten a score of 22 points!
