Answer:

The earning would be approximately 79.29 % in the final exam

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In class grade the percentage of homework = 40 % = 0.40 ,

Percentage of quizzes =  25 % = 0.25,

Percentage of final exam = 35 %=0.35,

Also, there is an earning of 95% in homework and 84% in quizzes entering the final exam,

⇒ Earning in homework = 95 % of 0.40,

And, earning in quizzes = 84 % of 0.25

Let x be the percentage do you have to earn in the final in order to have an 87% overall percentage,

\implies 95 \%\text{ of }0.40+84\%\text{ of }0.25 + x\%\text{ of }0.35=87\%

59.25+0.35x=87

0.35x=27.75

\implies x = 79.2857142857\approx 79.29\%

Hence, the earning would be approximately 79.29 % in the final exam in order to have an 87% overall percentage.

You have an 81.3. To find this you take your average for the parts, say for example the tests and multiply it times the percentage as a decimal. So for the tests it would be 84.20*0.40  

So out of 40 points possible of the 100 final points you got 33.68. You would do this for all the sections and add the points together  

(84.20*0.40)+(61.75*0.35)+(99.57*0.15)

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST the number of students at north middle school is 1240 and is decreasing by 25 students per year
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

-88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N(x) be the number of students at NMS for a certain number of years.

Let S(x) be the number of students at SMS for a certain number of years.

Let x be the number of years.

N(x)=1240-25x

S(x)=800-30x

When # of students is equal, N(x)=S(x). Therefore, we are looking for the value of x (# of years) when 1240-25x=800-30x

Subtract 1240 from each side

-25x=-440-30x

Add 30x

5x=-400

x=-88 years

Check your numbers.

Solve for x <br> A. 10<br> B. -8<br> C. 6<br> D. 3
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

c (6)

Step-by-step explanation:

by the corresponding angles postulate, the angle above 20x-5 will be 65°.

20x - 5 + 65 = 180 <em>they are supplementary angles (angles that add up to 180°)</em>

20x + 60 = 180

20x = 120

x = 6

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (4, 3) and (2, 7)?​
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

given 2 points on a line (x1, yx) and (x2,y2)

the formula for slope, m  = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

in this case,

x1 = 4, y1 = 3, x2 = 2, y2 = 7

Hence,

m  = (7-3) / (2-4) = 4 / -2 = -2
