at least 82. Determine the least number of additional points Noj must score on the retest.

so the test he scored lowest is 69 so discard this score and put x for it average=numbers added together then summ is divided by number of numbers exg average of 2 and 4 and 5 is 2+4+5=11 then 3 numbers so 11/3 is average or aprox 3 and 2/3 so [tex] \frac{76+84+x+74+91}{5} [/tex]=average he wants his new average to be at least 82 so [tex] \frac{76+84+x+74+91}{5} \geq 82 [/tex] solve [tex] \frac{76+84+x+74+91}{5} \geq 82 [/tex] treat as equation first add like terms in top [tex] \frac{325+x}{5} \geq 82 [/tex] multiply both sides by 5 to clear fraction 325+x [tex] \geq [/tex] 410 subtract 325 from both sides x [tex] \geq [/tex] 85 he must get [tex] \geq [/tex] 85 to get an average of at least 82
