v = 56.

8. Example 4
There were 3 questions on a math test. Shannyn earned m points for the first question and twice the number of points for the second question. How many points did she earn for the first two questions?
If she received a total of 25 points on the test, how many points did she earn for the third question?
If m = 5, find the points she earned for each question.
