Answer 1

Answer:

The student's final score is 77.2 and he earned a C letter grade

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the math problem correctly:

Midterm = 5% of the final grade and score of 60

Class project = 10% of the final grade and score of 92

Set of homework = 35% of the final grade and score of 80

Final exam = 50% of the final grade and score of 74

2. What is the student's final score?

Final score = (60 * 0.05) + (92 * 0.1) + (80 * 0.35) + (74 * 0.5)

Final score = 3 + 9.2 + 28 + 37

Final score = 77.2 and letter grade of C
