Solution

To calculate Tasheena's grade percentage in the class so far, we need to first calculate the percentage she received in each category and then multiply it by the weight of that category in the final grade.

  1. Quizzes: Tasheena scored 144 out of 150 points. So, her quiz percentage is (144/150)*100 = 96%.

  2. Exams: She scored 75, 83, and 96 on the first three exams, each worth 100 points. So, her exam percentage is ((75+83+96)/300)*100 = 85%.

  3. Projects: She got extra credit on her project with a score of 27 out of 25 possible points. So, her project percentage is (27/25)*100 = 108%.

  4. Attendance: She had perfect attendance to class. So, her attendance percentage is 100%.

Now, we need to multiply each of these percentages by the weight of that category in the final grade and then add them up.

  1. Quizzes: 96% * 15% = 14.4%
  2. Exams: 85% * 55% = 46.75%
  3. Projects: 108% * 25% = 27%
  4. Attendance: 100% * 5% = 5%

Adding these up, we get 14.4% + 46.75% + 27% + 5% = 93.15%

So, Tasheena's grade percentage in the class so far is approximately 93% when rounded to the nearest whole number.
