Daniel wants to have a 90 average in his math class at the end of the year. He is trying to determine what he needs to get on his final exam, which accounts for 10% of his grade, for this to work. Tests are weighted 50% of the grade, and he currently has a 85 for his test average; quizzes are weighted 15% of his grade, and he currently has a 95 quiz average; homework is weighted 15% of his grade and he currently has a 98 homework average; and projects are weighted 10% of his grade and he currently has a 92 project average. What does he need to get on his final exam to get a 90% in the class
:)
50- Test 15-quiz 15-hw 10-project 10-final test
so the marks are spread out like this
now he had a percentange of these marks in each section
50- Test - 85% of this 15-quiz - 95% 15-hw-98% 10-project-92% 10-final test - need to find the percent needed lets see how many total marks he has right now of the 90 marks if we disregard the 10 from final
85/100 * 50 + 95/100 * 15 + 98/100 * 15 + 92/100 * 10 = ??
80.65
i have gotten to that part but then after i get stuck ?
