on the first 6 tests of his spanish test, brandon got an average score of 85. What does he need on the next test t have an overall average of 87?
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "# of points gotten on the 1st 6 tests: 6*85 = 510
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(510+t)/7 = 87
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "510+t = 609
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "t = 99 (score needed on final test)
\n" ); document.write( "==============
