Respuesta :

I am thinking you mean 93 to represent William's scores of 91, 92, and "q3"on three quizzes in Queston 8a

Answer:Average (x)= 92

b.William needs 97 as his third score to get as average of 90

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

The  Average ( x) of the scores  can solved using the Formulae

Average ( x)= Sum of  scores / Number of Scores

Average ( x) = (Score 1 + Score 2 + Score 3) /3

Average (x)= (91, 92, and 93 )/3=276/3 = 92

b) Average ( x) of the scores = Sum of  scores/ Number of Scores

Now  let Score be represented  as  S  such that

Average (x) = (S 1 + S 2 +  S3  )/ 3

90 = 85+ 88+ S/ 3

90 x 3= 85+ 88 + S

270=173+ S

S= 270- 173

S=97

William needs 97 as his third score to get as average of 90
