Alvin has scores of 94, 80, 89, and 92 on his first four exams in a symbolic logic class. If the fifth test is the last test, what must he score on the fifth test to have an overall average of 90?
-----------------
Let the 5th test score be "x".
-------------
EQUATION:
(94 + 80 + 89 + 92 + x)/5 = 90
--------------
(94 + 80 + 89 + 92 + x) = 450
--------------
355 + x = 450
x = 95
