A student’s grade depends on her score on four different exams. Her average on the first three exams is 92. What must she score on her fourth exam in order to guarantee a final average of at least a 90?
--------------
Total points on 1st three exams = 3*92 = 276
------
Let the score on the final test be "x":
---
Solve:
(276+x)/4 >= 90
276 + x >= 360
x >= 84
