Question

Jacinta scores 23, 19, and 27 on three of her four tests. She wants to get an

average score of more than 24 on her tests.
The following is the inequality that represents this situation, where X is the score of
her fourth test.
(23+19+27+x)
4
> 24
What is the minimum score Jacinta can receive on her fourth test to have an average
score that is greater than 24?

Answer 1

23+19+27+x = 96

x > 27

not sure if the answer can be left that way or do you assume that test results are whole numbers, if so then the answer would b=have to be 28.. but I think that >27 is the answer expected
