75
and
81
on his first two 100 point tests.
What score must he get on his third 100 point test to keep an average of

or greater?

Answer :

semsee45

Answer:

t ≥ 96   test score must be 96 or greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t - score on his third test

   (75 + 81 + t) ÷ 3 ≥ 84

⇒ (75 + 81 + t) ≥ 84 x 3

⇒ (75 + 81 + t) ≥ 252

⇒ 156 + t ≥ 252

⇒ t ≥ 252 - 156 ≥ 96
