Liza is playing a game in which she earns 3 points for each correct response but loses 2 points for each incorrect response. She missed the first 3 questions. Right now she just hopes to break even. Which statement is true?

Each incorrect response costs 2 points, so 3 incorrect responses leave Liza with 3 × (−2) = −6 points. Each correct response earns 3 points, and 2 correct responses add 2 × 3 = 6 points, bringing her score to 0. Therefore, the true statement is that she needs 2 correct answers to break even.
