You would work this almost just as if you had the fourth test grade.
\n" ); document.write( "The test grades were 80, 75, 86, & x
\n" ); document.write( "They have to be atleast an 82.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%2880%2B75%2B86%2Bx%29%2F4=82\"$
\n" ); document.write( "To get rid of the fraction multiply each side by 4. The fours on the left side would cancel out
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4%2880%2B75%2B86%2Bx%29%2F4=82%2A4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"80%2B75%2B86%2Bx=328\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Add up the test grades
\n" ); document.write( "241 + x = 328
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "then subtract 241 from each side
\n" ); document.write( "x = 87\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So she would have to make atleast a 87 on the next to to have an average of atleast 82.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
