My maths grade is a 50% my test are worth 70% and my exams are worth 30% of my overall grade . I want to have a 75% in the class, I still have 2 quizzes to do and 2 units assignments. What do I need in each of those quizzes and units assignments to have an 80%? Is it possible to have an 89%?if no what’s the highest grade that I can achieve ? Also what do I need on my exam for an 80%
To calculate the grades needed, we'll assume each quiz and unit assignment is weighted equally in the 70% category.
To have an overall grade of 80%, you would need:
- (0.5 * 50%) + (0.2 * Quiz 1%) + (0.2 * Quiz 2%) + (0.05 * Assignment 1%) + (0.05 * Assignment 2%) + (0.3 * Exam%) = 80%
To have an overall grade of 75%, you would need:
- (0.5 * 50%) + (0.2 * Quiz 1%) + (0.2 * Quiz 2%) + (0.05 * Assignment 1%) + (0.05 * Assignment 2%) + (0.3 * Exam%) = 75%
To determine the highest grade you can achieve, let's assume you score 100% on both quizzes and both unit assignments:
- (0.5 * 50%) + (0.2 * 100%) + (0.2 * 100%) + (0.05 * 100%) + (0.05 * 100%) + (0.3 * Exam%) = Highest Possible Grade
Now, let's solve for Exam%:
For an overall grade of 80%:
- (0.5 * 50%) + (0.2 * Quiz 1%) + (0.2 * Quiz 2%) + (0.05 * Assignment 1%) + (0.05 * Assignment 2%) + (0.3 * Exam%) = 80%
For an overall grade of 75%:
- (0.5 * 50%) + (0.2 * Quiz 1%) + (0.2 * Quiz 2%) + (0.05 * Assignment 1%) + (0.05 * Assignment 2%) + (0.3 * Exam%) = 75%
Unfortunately, without specific values for the quizzes, assignments, and exams, we cannot determine the exact grades needed to achieve an 80% or 75%. Please provide the specific values for Quiz 1, Quiz 2, Assignment 1, Assignment 2, and Exam.
