The semester average is computed by taking 1/3 of the midterm exam score plus 2/3 of the final exam score.

\n" ); document.write( " If Stacy scored only 48 on the midterm, then for what range of scores on the final exam will Stacy get a C?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = final exam score
\n" ); document.write( "Since it counts twice as much as the midterm, write
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2848+%2B+2x%29%2F3\" > 70
\n" ); document.write( "48 + 2x > 3(70)
\n" ); document.write( "48 + 2x > 210
\n" ); document.write( "2x > 210 - 48
\n" ); document.write( "2x > 162
\n" ); document.write( "x > \"162%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "x > 81 to get an over 70 average
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "You can find the upper limit the same way; just solve
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2848+%2B+2x%29%2F3\" < 79
