A student's course grade is based on one midterm that counts as 1010% of his final grade, one class project that counts as 15

15% of his final grade, a set of homework assignments that counts as 4040% of his final grade, and a final exam that counts as 3535% of his final grade. His midterm score is 6767, his project score is 8888, his homework score is 9191, and his final exam score is 7272. What is his overall final score? What letter grade did he earn (A, B, C, D, or F)? Assume that a mean of 90 or above is an A, a mean of at least 80 but less than 90 is a B, and so on.

Answer:

His overall final score is 81.5

He earned a B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find his overall grade, we multiply each of his grades by it's weight.

Grades:

67 on the midterm, which counts for 10% = 0.1

88 on the project, which counts for 15% = 0.15

91 on homework assignements, which counts for 40% = 0.4

72 on the final exam, which counts for 35% = 0.35.

What is his overall final score?

67*0.1 + 88*0.15 + 91*0.4 + 72*0.35 = 81.5

His overall final score is 81.5

At least 80 and less than 90 has a letter grade of B. 81.5 is in this range. So he earned a B

The sum of three numbers is 121 The third number is 3 times the second. The first number is 6 times the second. The first number

Mama L [17]

Answer:

The first number is

72.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let second number be x.

First number= 6x

Third number= 3x

According to question,

6x+x+3x=121

or, 10x=121

or,x=121/10=12.1

First number= 6x=6×12.1=72.6

Third number=3x=3×12.1=36.3

A bridge in the shape of an arch connects two cities separated by a river. The two ends of the bridge are located at (–7, –13) a

sdas [7]

Answer:

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of an arch corresponds to a parabola.

the general equation for a parabola is:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

we're given three coordinates: (-7,-13),(7,-13) and (0,0)

so we can plug these values in the general equation to make 3 separate equations:

(x,y) = (-7,-13)

$-13=a(-7)^2+b(-7)+c$

$49a-7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (7,-13)

$-13=a(7)^2+b(7)+c$

$49a+7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (0,0)

$0=a(0)^2+b(7)+c$

$c=0$

so we have three equations. and we can solve them simultaneously to find the values of a,b, and c.

we've already found c = 0, let's use substitute it to other equations.

$49a-7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a-7b=-13$

$49a+7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a+7b=-13$

we can solve these two equation using the elimination method, by simply adding the two equations

$\quad\quad49a-7b=-13\\+\quad49a+7b=-13$

------------------------------

$\quad\quad 98a=-26$

$\quad\quad a=-\dfrac{13}{49}$

Now we can plug this value of a in any of the two equations.

$49a-7b=-13$

$49\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)-7b=-13$

$-13-7b=-13$

$-7b=0$

$b=0$

We have the values of a,b, and c. We can plug them in the general equation to find the equation of the arch.

$y=\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)x^2+0x+0$

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

$49y=-13x^2$

This our equation of the arch!
