\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I just wrote my Anatomy and Physiology test on Monday and I just received my grade today by email which was 45%. The test was worth 15%. Does 45% mean I failed or is there some sort of calculation I need to do in order to get the proper grade. I've never gotten a 45% so it doesn't make sense to me! \r

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
45% in the test is a fail for the test but does not necessarily mean you failed
\n" ); document.write( "the course
\n" ); document.write( "Assuming that passing was a 70 and the test was 15% of the grade, find the grade average for the rest of the tests
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = the average grade for the rest of the course which would be 85% of the course
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2885x%2B45%2815%29%29%2F100\" = 70
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by 100
\n" ); document.write( "85x + 675 = 7000
\n" ); document.write( "85x = 7000-675
\n" ); document.write( "85x = 6325
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6375/85
\n" ); document.write( "x ~ 75, if you have at least a 75 for the rest of course you will pass
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
