Problema Solution

You have to average at least a 90 on your test scores to get an A. You already have an 85, 92, and 91. What scores must you receive on your next test to earn a 90 average?

Answer provided by our tutors

let


x = the score needed on the next test


then the average of the 4 scores has to be 90 that is


(85 + 92 + 91 + x)/4 = 90 multiply both sides by 4


x = 92


you must score 92 to have an average of 90.
