Sagot :

Answer:

If your goal is 5 tests with an average score of 80, that must mean you must score a total of 5 x 80 points, or 400 points.

Since you already scored 82 + 76 + 88 + 84 = 330 points to date on the first four tests, you must score 400 minus 330 points = 70 points on the last test to achieve your goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the missing grade

(82+76+85+88+84+x)/6=85
415+x/6=85
Multiply both sides by 6 to cancel denominator
415+x=510
x=510-410
x=95

He needs a grade of 95 on his next test to have an average of 85.
