Answer: 71



Explanation:


Let’s use x for what the fifth test will be called.

1: The mean test score = (97 + 92 + 76 + 89 + x) • 5 = 85

^ the 85 is there because that’s the number she at least wants for her mean test score.

2: (354 + x) • 5 = 85

3: Multiply 5 • x to get it out of the parenthesis then do the same with the other side (85).

4: 354 + x = 425

5: 425 - 354 = 71

6: x = 71
