Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the maximum score for the final is , we can multiply each score by its respective course weight and add them together to give a final score. If your friend did receive this maximum score of
, their overall grade for the course would be:
.
To find the minimum score they need to earn a 75% for the course, we set up the following equation:
, where
is the minimum score she needs.
Solving, we get:
.
Use Pythagorean theorem:
9i-j = sqrt (9^2 - 1^2) = sqrt(81-1) = sqrt80
now divide both terms in V by that:
u = 9/sqrt(80)i - 1/sqrt(80)j
see attached picture:
9i-j = sqrt (9^2 - 1^2) = sqrt(81-1) = sqrt80
now divide both terms in V by that:
u = 9/sqrt(80)i - 1/sqrt(80)j
