Updated Batting Averages are computed using the formula:
A= B+K/G
• A = batting average
• B = times at bat multiplied by player's seasonal average
• K = hits in the new game
• G = times at bat plus times at bat in a new game
a. Solve A = B+K/G for K. Please show your work. (6 points)
b. Use your new formula and the values given in the table below to find the player's hits in a new game (K). Round your answer to the nearest whole number. (4 points)
