(a) 3.025 (b) 3.1 (c) 3.0 (d) 2.94 (e) 2.86 (f) none of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) 3.025

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

In the case when Abishola acheives all As in the senior year, so the final GPA  Is  

The net GPA is 3

So,

(2.7 × 90 + 30 × x) ÷ 120 = 3

30x = (360 - 2.7 × 90)

x = (360  - 2.7 × 90) ÷ (30)

= 3.9

As she can score till 4 so 3.9 could be possible  

In the case when she score 4 on her final year so her GPA is  

= (2.7 × 90 + 30 × 4) ÷ 120

= 3.025
