<PRE><B>Question 614992</B>
you have a 69 which represents 80% of your grade.
the final represents 20% of your grade.
69 * .80 + x * .20 = 77
simplify to get:
55.2 + .20x = 77
subtract 55.2 from both sides of the equation to get:
.20x = 77 - 55.2 which results in:
.20x = 21.8
divide both sides of the equation by .20 to get:
x = 21.8 / .20 = 109.
you need a 109 on the final to make at least 77 in the class.
