Explanation:

First position winner award = x points. Second position winner awarded = x-5 points. Third position winner awarded = x-10 points. Fourth position winner awarded = x-15 points. Total points award = 50
So, x + x-5 +x-10+x-15= 50
= 4x = 80
X = 20
Now, third position winner awarded = x-10 points = 20-10= 10 points
