1. If there are 100 navy beans, 27 pinto beans and 173 blackeyed peas in a container, what is the percent abundance in the container by type of bean?

2. If your chemistry grade is broken down so that 70.0% of it is based on exams, 20.0% on lab reports and 10.0% on homework, and your average scores (out of 100 points in each area) are: exams: 85, labs: 75, homework: 96. What would your weighted average score be?

1. The percent abundance in the container which has 100 navy, 27 pinto, and 173 black-eyed peas beans is 33.3%, 9.0%, and 57.7% for navy bean, pinto bean, and black-eyed peas beans, respectively.

2. The weighted average score for the scores of 85, 75, 96 obtained from the evaluations of exams (20%), labs (75%), and homework (96%) is 84.1.

1. The percent abundance by type of bean is given by:

[tex] \% = \frac{n}{n_{t}} \times 100 [/tex] (1)

Where:

n: is the number of each type of beans

[tex]n_{t}[/tex]: is the total number of beans

The total number of beans can be calculated by adding the number of all the types of beans:

[tex] n_{t} = n_{n} + n_{p} + n_{b} [/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex] n_{n} [/tex]: is the number of navy beans = 100

[tex] n_{p} [/tex]: is the number of pinto beans = 27

[tex]n_{b} [/tex]: is the number of black-eyed peas beans = 173

Hence, the total number of beans is (eq 2):

[tex] n_{t} = 100 + 27 + 173 = 300 [/tex]

Now, the percent abundance by type of bean is (eq 1):

Navy beans

[tex] \%_{n} = \frac{100}{300} \times 100 = 33.3 \% [/tex]

Pinto beans

[tex] \%_{p} = \frac{27}{300} \times 100 = 9.0 \% [/tex]

Black-eyed peas beans

[tex] \%_{b} = \frac{173}{300} \times 100 = 57.7 \% [/tex]

Hence, the percent abundance by type of bean is 33.3%, 9.0%, and 57.7% for navy bean, pinto bean, and black-eyed peas beans, respectively.

2. The average score (S) can be calculated as follows:

[tex] S = e*\%_{e} + l*\%_{l} + h*\%_{h} [/tex] (3)

Where:

e: is the score for exams = 85

l: is the score for lab reports = 75

h: is the score for homework = 96

[tex] %_{e} [/tex][tex]\%_{e}[/tex]: is the percent for exams = 70.0%

[tex] \%_{l} [/tex]: is the percent for lab reports = 20.0%

[tex] \%_{h} [/tex]: is the percent for homework = 10.0%

Then, the average score is:

[tex] S = 85*0.70 + 75*0.20 + 96*0.10 = 84.1 [/tex]

We can see that if the score for each evaluation is 100, after multiplying every evaluation for its respective percent, the final average score would be 100.

Therefore, the weighted average score will be 84.1.
