A student's course grade is based on one midterm that counts as 5 % of his final grade, one class project that counts as 15 % of his final grade, a set of homework assignments that counts as 35 % of his final grade, and a final exam that counts as 45 % of his final grade. His midterm score is 75 , his project score is 93 , his homework score is 78 , and his final exam score is 70. What is his overall final score? What letter grade did he earn (A, B, C, D, or F) ? Assume that a mean of 90 or above is an A, a mean of at least 80 but less than 90 is a B, and so on.

76.5 C

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the weights to the scores and add them up:

5% * midterm + 15% * project + 35% * homework + 45% * final

= 0.05 (75) + 0.15 (93) + 0.35 (78) + 0.45 (70)

= 76.5

The student has a solid letter grade of C.
