Answer:

99 points

Step-by-step explanation:

total of scores of 4 tests = 88 + 84 + 88 + 91 = 351

5 tests with an average score of 90:

⇒ total of scores = 5 × 90 = 450

Lowest score of 5th test = 450 - 351 = 99 points

Answer:

99 points

points scored:

88 points , 84 points, 88 points , 91 points, let the fifth test points be "n"

  • given score with an average 90 points

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{88 +84+88+91+n}{5} =90[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow 351+n =90 (5)[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow n =450-351[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf n = 99[/tex]
