Suppose you average 82 on your first 7 test. What must you score on the eighth test to raise your average to 84?

Sagot :

so hmmm on average on the last 7 test, you get 82, so hmmm we could say that on each of the 7 tests you got 82, so you got 82, 7 times.

now, let's say in the 8th test, you get a grade of "g", now, if we were to get an average of all 8 tests, that means the average will simply be (82*7) + "g", and we know that's 84, so

[tex]\cfrac{(\stackrel{\textit{sum of all first seven tests}}{82+82+82+82+82+82+82})~~ + ~~g}{8}~~ = ~~84\implies \cfrac{(82\cdot 7)~~ + ~~g}{8}~~ = ~~84 \\\\\\ \cfrac{574+g}{8}=84\implies 574+g=672\implies g=672-574\implies g=98[/tex]
