The description suggests a linear relationship. This can define two data points as (x,y); x being the raw percentage score, y being the rescaled score.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "These points are (85,0) and (100,100).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next objective is find the equation of the line which contains these two points.
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%28100-0%29%2F%28100-85%29=100%2F15=20%2F3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Pick any or either point:
\n" ); document.write( "point-slope form line, \"y-100=%2820%2F3%29%28x-100%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-100=20x%2F3-2000%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%2820%2F3%29x%2B100-2000%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%2820%2F3%29x%2B300%2F3-2000%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=%2820%2F3%29x-1700%2F3%29\" or \"highlight%28y=%2820%2F3%29x-566%262%2F3%29\"
