Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ------> the next grade
we know that
To find the average grade sum the grades by the number of math test
so
solve for x
Combine liker terms in the right side
Multiply by 5 both sides
Subtract 372 both sides
-----> this is not make sense
The grade cannot be a negative number
so
For x=0
The minimum average grade is
The answer is C.
To solve these types of equations you first need to make sure that you equation is equal to 0. In this case all of the numbers are already on the same side so no work needs to be done there. Then we can get a, b and c values for the quadratic equation by looking at the coefficients.
a = 4 (number attached to x^2)
b = -6 (number attached to x)
c = 1 (number with no variable attached)
Now we can put this into the quadratic equation.
