Q: A student wants to calculate their semester average using the grading system described. If their exam average is 85, homework average is 90, and case study average is 80, what is their semester average? Use the formula: $\text{Semester Average} = (\text{Exam Average} \times 0.55) + (\text{Homework Average} \times 0.20) + (\text{Case Study Average} \times 0.20) + (\text{Check-in Average} \times 0.05)$, assuming a check-in average of 100.

$\text{Semester Average} = (85 \times 0.55) + (90 \times 0.20) + (80 \times 0.20) + (100 \times 0.05) = 46.75 + 18 + 16 + 5 = 85.75$

Q: If a student receives the following grades: Exam average = 78, Homework average = 85, Case study average = 90, Check-in average = 100, what is their semester average? Use the formula: $\text{Semester Average} = (\text{Exam Average} \times 0.55) + (\text{Homework Average} \times 0.20) + (\text{Case Study Average} \times 0.20) + (\text{Check-in Average} \times 0.05)$.

$\text{Semester Average} = (78 \times 0.55) + (85 \times 0.20) + (90 \times 0.20) + (100 \times 0.05) = 42.9 + 17 + 18 + 5 = 82.9$

Question 4

A student wants to calculate their semester average using the grading system described. If their exam average is 85, homework average is 90, and case study average is 80, what is their semester average?
