Answer:

The correct answer is x
\geq 106, where x is the marks score by Jose in his remaining test, n.

Explanation:

Jose scored 544 points in his math test.

Jose needs minimum of 650 points to get an A.

Let Jose scores x in the remaining test, n.

Jose needs to score an A. So, to reach 650 points, Jose need to score a minimum of 650 - 544 = 106 points.

Thus the value of x must be greater than of equal to 106, in his remaining test, n, to ensure that Jose gets an A.

⇒ x
\geq 106.
