Question 930988
I have an 83.98% in my class, tests are worth 30% what do i need to get on my test to still have an 82% in that class?
-----
# of points you have on your tests thus far:: 0.8398*70 = 58.786
# of points you need in the class:: 82 out of 100
----
Score you need out of the final 30 points:: 82-58.786 = 23.214 points
--
Percent score you need to get those points:: 23.214/30 = 77.3%
-------------
Doing all of this with one equation::
0.8398*70 + x*30 = 82
30x = 82-0.8398*70
x = (82-0.8398*70)/30
x = 0.773 = 77.3%
