Answer:

a) final exam: 90.2 B     b) percent of final grade: 20 F

Step-by-step explanation:

calculator: a)86+81+96+99+89=451/5=90.2

b) 20+15+15+25+25=100/5=20

The  weighted mean of a distribution is the sum of the product of the data elements of the distribution by the proportion of each element.

The weighted mean score of the students is 90.75

To calculate the weighted mean score, we simply multiply the score of each student by the percentage grade.

So, we have:

[tex]Mean = 86 \times 20\% + 81 \times 15\% + 96 \times 15\% + 99 \times 25\% + 89 \times 25\%[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Mean = 17.20 + 12.15 + 14.40 + 24.75 + 22.25[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 90.75[/tex]

Hence, the weighted mean score of the students is 90.75
