10) Jackson’s scores on the first four algebra quizzes are 79, 88, 95, and 71. What score must he earn on the fifth quiz to earn an average quiz score of 85?

Respuesta :

Based on the given information, let x represent the grade for the fifth quiz.

(79+88+95+71+x)/5=85
(333+x)/5=85
333+x=425
x=92

Jackson would have to earn a 92 on his fifth quiz to earn an average of 85.
