Question

a students course grade is based on one midterm that counts as 20% of his final grade, one class project that counts as 20% of his final grade, a set of homework - assignments that counts as 50% of his final grade, and a final exam that counts as 10% of his final grade. his midterm score is 67, his project score is 99, his homework score is 85, and his final exam score is 65. what is his overall final score? what letter grade did he earn (a, b, c, d, or f)? assume that a mean of 90 or above is an a, a mean of at least 80 but less than 90 is a b, and so on. his overall final score is (type an integer or a decimal. do not round.)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate weighted midterm score

$67\times0.2 = 13.4$

Step2: Calculate weighted project score

$99\times0.2=19.8$

Step3: Calculate weighted homework score

$85\times0.5 = 42.5$

Step4: Calculate weighted final - exam score

$65\times0.1=6.5$

Step5: Calculate overall final score

$13.4 + 19.8+42.5 + 6.5=82.2$

Since $80\leq82.2<90$, the letter - grade is B.

Answer:

82.2
B
