Answer:

Equation: 87 + 91 + 86 + x = 360

Solution: 264 + x = 360

x = 360 - 264

x = 96

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

First three Kelsea's test grades : 87, 91 and 86

2. What score must she get on her fourth test to receive at least an A- ?

Define variable: x that represents the grade needed by Kelsea on her fourth test to receive at least an A-

Equation: 87 + 91 + 86 + x = 360

Solution: 264 + x = 360

x = 360 - 264

x = 96

Now you can understand if the previous work you did is correct
