Two tests only. Prof. Davis counts his midterm as 2/3 of the grade, and his final as 1/3 of the grade. Jason scored only 64 on the midterm. What range of scores on the final exam would put Jason's average between 70 and 79 inclusive?

\n" ); document.write( "Let the final grade need be \"x\"
\n" ); document.write( "INEQUALITY:
\n" ); document.write( "70 <= (2/3)64+(1/3)x <= 79\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Subtract (2/3)64 = 128/3 along the line to get:
\n" ); document.write( "82/3 <= (1/3)x <= 109/3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 3 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "82 <= x <= 109\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==================
