The average for lynn's two test scores must be at least a 93 to make an A. Lynn got an 88 on her first test. What scores can she get on her second test to make an A in the class?

Answer:

Lynn must score 98 in her second test to make an Average of 93 and get an A.

Solution:

Required average of test score by Lynn’s to make an A = 93

Number of tests for which average is calculated = 2

Score of Lynn in first test = 88

let’s assume the score required by Lynn in second test to make an A = x.

Average of test score = [tex]\frac{Total score of all test}{number of tests}[/tex]

[tex]93 = \frac{(88 + x )}{2}[/tex]

186 = 88 + x  

x = 186 – 88 = 98

Hence Lynn must score 98 in her second test to make an Average of 93 and get an A.
