Answer:

b = - $4\frac{1}{3}$

b = - $\frac{13}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 = b - $\frac{2}{3}$

Add $\frac{2}{3}$ to both sides of the equation to get rid of the "- $\frac{2}{3}$ " on the right side.

-5 + $\frac{2}{3}$ = b - $\frac{2}{3}$ + $\frac{2}{3}$

Simplify

- $4\frac{1}{3}$ = b

b = - $4\frac{1}{3}$

b = - $\frac{13}{3}$

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the score she got on the fifth test.

Since her average score is 88, the sum of all five tests is 5×88.

x + 87 + 75 + 93 + 85 = 5×88 = 440

x = 440 - 87 - 75 - 93 - 85

x = 100

She got a 100 on her fifth test.
