If she wants to at least match her previous average, then what is the minimum number of goals she must score in order to maintain her previous average?

Answer 1

Number of goals to convert in game 5= 3 goals

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A soccer player's average during her first two seasons was 1.4 goals per game.

First, we need to determine the number of goals converted:

Goal games 1-4= 4

Now, the number of goals she must have at five games and by the difference the number of goals to convert:

Number of goals for five games= 1.4*5= 7

Number of goals to convert= 7 - 4= 3 goals
