Answer:
A. 80.8
B. 79
C. math
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Fill in x=2 and evaluate the expression.
f(2) = 0.9·2 +79 = 1.8 +79 = 80.8
After 2 tests, your math average is 80.8.
__
B. Read the value from the table for x=2:
g(2) = 79
Your science test average is 79 after 2 tests.
__
C. For the math average, we fill in x=4 in the function and do the arithmetic:
f(4) = 0.9·4 +79 = 3.6 +79 = 82.6
For the science score, we recognize that the score goes up 1 point for each test. Then the score after test 4 will be 80+1 = 81.
The math class average of 82.6 is higher than the science class average of 81 after 4 tests.
_____
Additional comment
The averages in the two classes will be the same after 20 tests: 97.
