Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Nicole usually scores between 89% and 100% on her math quizzes.

On the quizzes she takes right after a track meet, she has about an 11% decrease in her score, so she will earn 100% - 11%  = 89% of her usual score.

1. 89% of 89% is

[tex]0.89\cdot 89\%=79.21\%\approx 79\%[/tex]

2. 89% of 100% is

[tex]0.89\cdot 100\%=89\%[/tex]

So, if Nicole had a track meet the day before a quiz, her score would be between 79% and 89%.
