To enter a competion, students must score a total of at least 430 points on five qualifying tests. Each test is worth 100 points. On the first four tests, your scores were 90, 85, 76, and 82. What are three possible scores you can eam on the latest to enter the competition?
Choose the correct answer below.
OA. Three possible scores are 95, 96, and 97. OB. Three possible scores are 85, 85 and 87. OC. Three possible scores are m_{1} 100, and 101. OD. Three possible scores are 96, 97, and 98. OE Three possible scores are 6, 8T and 88. OF Three possible scores are 97, 98, and 99.
To find the lowest possible score on the last test, we can take the sum of the scores on the first four tests and subtract it from the required total of 430 points: 430 - (90 + 85 + 76 + 82) = 97.
To find the highest possible score on the last test, we can take the required total of 430 points and subtract the sum of the scores on the first four tests: 430 - (90 + 85 + 76 + 82) = 97.
Therefore, three possible scores for the fifth test are 97, 97, and 97.
The correct answer is OF. Three possible scores are 97, 98, and 99.
To enter the competition, students must score a total of at least 430 points on five qualifying tests, with each test worth 100 points.
The first four test scores are as follows:
- Test 1: 90
- Test 2: 85
- Test 3: 76
- Test 4: 82
To find three possible scores on the latest test that would allow the student to meet the minimum requirement of 430 points, we can subtract the sum of the first four scores from 430 and divide the result by 100 (since each test is worth 100 points).
Total score needed for the five tests = 430
Sum of the first four scores = 90 + 85 + 76 + 82 = 333
Required score on the latest test = (430 - 333) / 100
Calculating the required score, we get:
Required score = 97
Therefore, three possible scores on the latest test that would satisfy the minimum requirement of 430 points are:
- 97 (Option F)
So, the correct answer is option OF. Three possible scores are 97, 98, and 99.
To find possible scores on the latest test, we need to calculate the minimum score required on the latest test to reach a total of at least 430 points.
First, let's find the total score of the first four tests: 90 + 85 + 76 + 82 = 333.
Next, subtract the total score from 430 to find the minimum score required on the latest test: 430 - 333 = 97.
Therefore, three possible scores on the latest test that would allow the student to enter the competition are 97, 98, and 99.
The correct answer is OF. Three possible scores are 97, 98, and 99.
