Answer:

232 points

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum score is obtained when Edy answers the maximum number of questions correctly. The maximum short answer questions she can get correct is 5 and the maximum word problems she can get correct is 16, but she can do 20 questions at most.  

Like the word problems give her more points, then the maximum score is obtained when she does 16 word problems and 4 short answer questions.

4 short answer questions scored 4(6) = 24 points and 16 word problems scored 16(13) = 208 points. Then the maximum score she can get is 232 points.
