Answer:
the scores on her last test is x (x > 0)
because on her last tests she scored 4 points lower than she did on her fifth test
=> the scores in the 5th test is x + 4
because Angela’s average for six math tests is 87, we have:
[tex] \frac{93 + 87 + 82 + 86 + x + x + 4}{6} = 87 \\ \\ < = > \frac{352 + 2x}{6} = 87 \\ \\ < = > 352 + 2x = 522 \\ \\ < = > 2x = 170 \\ \\ < = > x = 85[/tex]
=> on her last test, she had 85
=> on her 5th test, she had 85 + 4 = 89
