To compute a student's Grade Point Average (GPA) for a term, the student's grades for each course are weighted by the number of

credits for the course. Suppose a student had these grades: 3.7 in a 5 credit Math course 1.8 in a 3 credit Music course 2.8 in a 5 credit Chemistry course 2.8 in a 4 credit Journalism course What is the student's GPA for that term

Answer:

2.89, rounded to the nearest hundredth

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that GPA is weighted by credits, we must first multiply each grade by its credit amount and sum those up to weigh the credits. Then, we divide by the total amount of credits to get the GPA per credit.

So, we start with math,

3.7 *5 + 1.8 *3 + 2.8 * 5 + 2.8 * 4 = 49.1 as the total GPA weighted per credit.

Then, to find the average per credit, we divide by the total amount of credits, which is 5 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 17.

Our answer is 49.1/17 = 2.89, rounded to the nearest hundredth

To find the point of intersection, we want to set the two equations equal to each other to find where they meet. The problem is, we have two variables, which means we can't just set them equal to each other as is. We need to manipulate the equations so that we can remove one of the variables at a time to solve for the other one.

First, let's move y to one side so we can solve for x.
2x-3y=9
2x-9=3y
y=(2x-9)/3

5x+4y=11
4y=11-5x
y=(11-5x)/4

Now that they both equal the same thing (y), we can set them equal to each other and solve for x. This will give us the x value for the point of intersection of the lines.
(11-5x)/4=(2x-9)/3
3(11-5x)=4(2x-9)
33-15x=8x-36
33+36=8x+15x
69=23x
x=69/23
x=3

Now, we can do the opposite, and solve for x to find the y coordinate.
2x-3y=9
2x=3y+9
x=(3y+9)/2

5x+4y=11
5x=11-4y
x=(11-4y)/5

(3y+9)/2=(11-4y)/5
5(3y+9)=2(11-4y)
15y+45=22-8y
15y+8y=22-45
23y= -23
y= -1

The coordinates for the point of intersection of the two lines is (3, -1).

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First we should fill in what we know. They mentioned that the y would be the numerator (# on the top) and the x would be the denominator (# in the bottom).

\frac{3}{24} =\frac{y}{10}         <----  This will be your proportion

Now we will cross multiply and make a equation. So we will do 3 * 10 which equals 30 and then 24 * y which is 24y. So now our equation will look like this.

30=24y\\y=1.25

Then when you solve the equation you'll get 1.25

Answer:

90°

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = 60° and x = 30 the sum of interior angles in a triangle is = 180°

60° + 30° + y = 180°

y = 90°
