Answer:

He must have a score of 80 or higher.

Explanation:


(86+88+78+x)/(4)
\geq 83


(252 +x)/(4) ≥ 83 Multiply both sides by 4

252 + x
\geq 332 Subtract 252 from both sides

x
\geq 80

Answer:%80

Step-by-step explanation: take 83 x 4 (4 being the total number of test) and you get 332, then take the 332 and subtract the current test score (78,88,86). Finally you have your answer, %80
