1. Calculate the sum of the three quizzes:
81 + 76 + 82 = 239

2. Let \( x \) be the score on the fourth quiz.

3. The average of the four quizzes should be at least 80:
\frac{239 + x}{4} \geq 80

4. Multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction:
239 + x \geq 320

5. Subtract 239 from both sides to solve for \( x \):
x \geq 81

Therefore, the least you can make on the fourth quiz to have an average of at least 80 is:
\text{Answer} \geq 81

User One of the applications of the derivative of a function is its use in Physics, where a function that at every instant t associates the number s(t), this function s is called the clockwise function of the movement. By deriving the time function we obtain the velocity function at time t, denoted by v(t). A body has a time function that determines its position in meters at time t as S(t)=t.³√t+2.t . Present the speed of this body at time t = 8 s.
