A student of the author earned grades of 92, 83, 77, 84, and 82 on herfive regular tests. She earned grades of 88 on the final e

xam and 95 on her class projects. Hercombined homework grade was 77. The five regular tests count for 60% of the final grade, thefinal exam counts for 10%, the project counts for 15%, and homework counts for 15%.What is her weighted mean grade? What letter grade did she earn? (A, B, C, D, or F)

The class is weighted as follows:

60% Regular Tests

10% Final Exam

15% Project

15% Homework

The total weighted points possible for the class are as follows:

(100+100+100+100+100)*.6 + 100*.1 + 100*.15 + 100*.15 = 340

To calculate her individual final weighted grade we plug in her scores for each category and complete the following computation:

(92+83+77+84+82)*.6 + 88*.1 + 95*.15 + 77*.15 = 285.4

So her weighted grade percent would be 285.4/340 = 83.9% which is a B.

Answer:

(5,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

ONE WAY:

If $f(x)=x^2-6x+3$ , then $f(x-2)=(x-2)^2-6(x-2)+3$ .

Let's simplify that.

Distribute with $-6(x-2)$ :

$f(x-2)=(x-2)^2-6x+12+3$

Combine the end like terms $12+3$ :

$f(x-2)=(x-2)^2-6x+15$

Use $(x-b)^2=x^2-2bx+b^2$ identity for $(x-2)^2$ :

$f(x-2)=x^2-4x+4-6x+15$

Combine like terms $-4x-6x$ and $4+15$ :

$f(x-2)=x^2-10x+19$

We are given $g(x)=f(x-2)$ .

So we have that $g(x)=x^2-10x+19$ .

The vertex happens at $x=\frac{-b}{2a}$ .

Compare $x^2-10x+19$ to $ax^2+bx+c$ to determine $a,b,\text{ and } c$ .

$a=1$

$b=-10$

$c=19$

Let's plug it in.

$\frac{-b}{2a}$

$\frac{-(-10)}{2(1)}$

$\frac{10}{2}$

$5$

So the $x-$ coordinate is 5.

Let's find the corresponding $y-$ coordinate by evaluating our expression named $g$ at $x=5$ :

$5^2-10(5)+19$

$25-50+19$

$-25+19$

$-6$

So the ordered pair of the vertex is (5,-6).

ANOTHER WAY:

The vertex form of a quadratic is $a(x-h)^2+k$ where the vertex is $(h,k)$ .

Let's put $f$ into this form.

We are given $f(x)=x^2-6x+3$ .

We will need to complete the square.

I like to use the identity $x^2+kx+(\frac{k}{2})^2=(x+\frac{k}{2})^2$ .

So If you add something in, you will have to take it out (and vice versa).

$x^2-6x+3$

$x^2-6x+(\frac{6}{2})^2+3-(\frac{6}{2})^2$

$(x+\frac{-6}{2})^2+3-3^2$

$(x+-3)^2+3-9$

$(x-3)^2+-6$

So we have in vertex form $f$ is:

$f(x)=(x-3)^2+-6$ .

The vertex is (3,-6).

So if we are dealing with the function $g(x)=f(x-2)$ .

This means we are going to move the vertex of $f$ right 2 units to figure out the vertex of $g$ which puts us at (3+2,-6)=(5,-6).

The $y-$ coordinate was not effected here because we were only moving horizontally not up/down.
