Rod's scores on 4 history tests are 88,96,98,and 90. What score does he need on the fifth test to have a mean score of 94 on all 5 tests?
-----------------------------
Please help answer

Respuesta :

(88+96+98+90+x)/5=94
Add all the numbers
(372+x)/5=94
Multiply both sides by 5
372+x=470
Subtract 372 from both sides
x=98

Double check:
88+96+98+90+98=470/5=94

Hope that helps

the answer is 98 because you add everything up and you divide
