A professor determined the relationship between the time spent studying (in hours) and performance on an exam.

Performance = 70.443 + 4.885 * (time)

Ann studied 2.6 hours for the last exam. However there was a concert in town the night before and her score was 16 points lower than expected. What was her score on this exam, rounded to the nearest integer?

Respuesta :

Step 1: Insert 2.6 hours for the variable of time and solve.
70.443 + 4.885(2.6)
70.443+ 12.701
= 83.144
This is Ann's EXPECTED exam score.  Because of the concert, Ann scored 16 points lower than this number.
Step 2: Subtract 16 from Ann's expected score.
83.144 - 16
= 67.144

Answer: it’s 67.144
