Answer 1

Using the weighed mean formula, it is found that Mara's average for the course was of 68.6.

What is the weighed mean?

The weighed mean is given by the sum of all elements in a data-set multiplied by it's weight, divided by the sum of the weights.

In this problem, the weights are as follows:

• A quiz has a weight of 1.

• A test has a weight of 2.

• The final examination has a weight of 4.

Hence, her weighed mean is given as follows:

$M = \frac{2(65 + 62 + 60) + (61 + 96 + 80 + 89) + 4(65)}{6 + 4 + 4} = 68.6$

Mara's average for the course was of 68.6.
