Question

The average of Mindy’s two test scores must be at least 90 to make an A in the class. Mindy got an 95 on her first test. What scores can she get on her second test to make an A in the class?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Total points needed for two tests to average 90 is 90 x 2 = 180 points.

Subtract the score of the first test from the total points needed:

180 -95 = 85

She needs an 85 on the second test.
