document.write( "Question 830003: A students grades in a course is the average of 4 test grades and a final exam that is worth 3 times as much as each test. Suppose a student has test grades of 91,89,78,92. Write an equation where x is the students grade and y is the students average. I am having a hard time coming up with the answer for why? I don't understand how they got the answer for it. I come close but not exact. \n" ); document.write( "
