Tito answered 5 questions incorrectly. Therefore, the change in Tito's score on Quiz 1 due to incorrect answers is calculated by multiplying the number of incorrect questions by the points lost per incorrect question.

Change in score = (Number of incorrect questions) × (Points lost per incorrect question)

Change in score for Quiz 1 = 5 * (-2) = -10
