Sagot :

Answer:

Equation that can be used = [tex]\frac{4(88)+2x}{6} = 90[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amir's average on four tests = 88

Let,

x be the score on one test

For two tests = 2x

Sum of all scores = Average of four tests + Score of two tests

Sum of all scores = 4(88) + 2x

Total number of tests = 6

Overall average needed = 90

Now,

[tex]Average = \frac{Sum\ of\ quantities}{Number\ of\ quantities}\\90 = \frac{4(88)+2x}{6}\\\\\frac{4(88)+2x}{6} = 90[/tex]

Hence,

Equation that can be used = [tex]\frac{4(88)+2x}{6} = 90[/tex]
