Professor Counts his midterms as 2/3 of the grade and his final as 1/3 of the
\n" ); document.write( " grade. If Wendy scored 48 on the midterm, What range of scores on the final
\n" ); document.write( " exam would put Wendy’s average between 70-79 inclusive?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = score for this to happen
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Since the midterm grade counts twice as much as the final, write an equation thus:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2848+%2B+48+%2B+x%29%2F3\" => 70
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2896+%2B+x%29%2F3\" => 70
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply equation by 3:
\n" ); document.write( "96 + x = 3(70)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 210 - 96
\n" ); document.write( "x => 114
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Do the same with the upper value
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2848+%2B+48+%2B+x%29%2F3\" =< 79
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "If they don't give grades higher than a hundred, Wendy is in trouble
\n" ); document.write( "
