The Pythagorean theorem tells you

... a² + b² = c²

so

... a² = c² - b² = 16² - 9² = 256-81 = 175

... a = √175 = √(25·7)

... a = 5√7

You have a mean score of 84 after taking five 100-point tests. What do you need to score on the sixth 100-point test to have a m

The mean of n numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by n.

You have a mean score of 84 after taking 5 tests. Let x be the sum of scores.
$\frac{x}{5}=84 \\
x=84 \times 5 \\
x=420$
You scored a total of 420 points on five tests.

You need to have a mean score of 85 after taking 6 tests. Let y be the score you need to obtain. Your total score on 6 tests is 420+y.
$\frac{420+y}{6}=85 \\
420+y=85 \times 6 \\
420+y=510 \\
y=510-420 \\
y=90$

You need to score 90 points on the sixth test.
