Answer:

He needs to score 28 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]1^{st}\,\,score: 30\,\,points;\\\\2^{nd}\,\,score: 18\,\,points;\\\\3^{rd}\,\,score: 28\,\,points;\\\\4^{th}\,\,score: \,\,?[/tex]

Let's calculate Dante's 4th score, given that the average is 26 points:

[tex]\frac{S1 + S2 + S3 + S4}{4} = 26\\\\\frac{30 + 18 + 28 + S4}{4} = 26\\\\76 + S4 = 104\\\\S4 = 28\,\,points.[/tex]
