My math class percentage?(urgent, need to know)

[Freedom G]

Okay, here is the situation, I have a 51% in my math class. tests are worth 90% of the overall grade, and homework is worth 10%. My final is coming up and I need to know, what is the lowest percentage I can get on the test without my grade going down any more? because if my grade goes down anymore, i will fail and not be able to graduate highschool. Thankyou for the help.

[Fadock]

well... Would this be if you did all the homework?

EDIT: Now that i think, We would need each individual grade to figure this out. Unless your Test counts as an entire grading block (mine do)

[Freedom G]

okay, i found my grade printout, and mistake in the first post, I have a 60.1% in the class.

Homework- 74.7% C
Test/Quiz- 57.5% F

What i mean is, i would need the individual grades themselves. For instance...

If i got back 4 tests, all with 90%'s and one with a 50%. My grade wouldn't be 70%. But rather an 82%

[Freedom G]

oh, okay, this is going to take a bit to type out,

Test/Quiz overall-57.5% F

Test Ch.1 1&2.........71/100.......71.0% C-
Quiz 3.1-3.5...........27/50.........56.3% F
Test Ch.3...............70/100.......70.0% C-
Quiz 4.1-4.3............13/??.........54.2% F
Test Ch.4................77/100.......77.0% C+
Quiz 5.1-5.5.............22/??........78.6% C+
Test Ch.5................40/100......40.0% F
Test Ch.6................25/100.......25.0% F

and do you need all the homework grades as well?

[Fadock]

if you want it calculated, yes. Also. What is considered passing? At least a 59 or at least a 60?

[Freedom G]

I need atleast a 60% which is a D- to pass the class, and here are the homework grades, Overall-74.7% C

Cards.........5/5.........100.0% A+
Guidlines.....5/5.........100.0% A+

5.3............5/5.........100.0% A+
5.4............0/5.........0.0% F
5.5............5/5.........100.0% A+
5.6............0/5.........0.0% F
5.7............0/5.........0.0% F
5.8............0/5.........0.0% F
6.1............5/5.........100.0% A+

and I'm pretty sure the final test is worth twice as much as a normal test.

I smell irony.


Okay, so assuming your last test is out of 100 points, you'd need at least an 86/100 to pass.

If it's out of 200 points, then you'd need around 160/200 to pass, barely.

[Freedom G]

okay, thanks alot. I guess i'm gonna be doing nothing but studying till next tuesday. Oh, but what would it be if all of those 0% homework assignments were 50%, would that make any difference? because i think i can turn those in for late credit.

[Scott]

Well, assuming what you said (tests are 90% and homework is 10%) is true, the difference is minimal.

However, if it's by total points, then it'd help by as many points as you get. (That'd be about 25 points or so you'd be saved from.)

[Freedom G]

yeah, its by total points, so i guess it will help, thanks alot guys.

Am I the only one that got a lol out of this thread?

Well, yeah, but it's just, I learned how to figure out a problem like this in Math a while ago. I've forgotten it now, but found it ironic.

[Scott]

I said I smell irony. That relates. I didn't 'lol,' though. I try to avoid that when there's other people around me.

Well, of course. Need to keep up that devoid-of-emotion evil dictator image.

Freedom G: When is your final Math exam.
Also, this reminds me of my friend's situation. Except, he needed exactly 101% in his exam to pass for the year.

Name one job you don't use math in. Truth be told there isn't one.

Classics

[Scott]

"Classics"? What does that mean? That's not a job.

[UZ!]

Being a bum doesn't require all that much math...

Journalism? Art? Authoring? Computer Graphics Design? Historian? About every subject that isn't in the sciences category? <_<

Not a job?

Ok then my friend

tell me this

what do you say to all the Dons and Masters in Classics? Do they not have a job?

Economics. Everyone must have at least some understanding.


Also, Computer Graphics is ALL math. If you don't understand math concepts for it, you're not a professional. I know this because that's what one of my classes is all about: graphics. It's a math class.


And "Dons and Masters in Classics" don't have jobs, no.
