Here's my answer No, No, No
1 - No because Jean received an A on the final project and also received an A on the second quiz.
2 - No because Mia received C and D on the two quizzes but received an A on the final project.
3 - No because Stanley would have received a B. There are 2 students you would have to check for this question: Phoebe and Stanley. Phoebe clearly gets an A because the two Bs "cancel" the two As. However, it's not as clear for Stanley, so you might have to do the math.
Stanley's scores are A, B, A, C, A. This would translate to 4, 3, 4, 2, 4
4+3+4+2+4 = 17
17/4 = 3.4 (this rounds down to a B)


Maybe I'm crazy but 17/4 is definitely 4.25.

probably just a little typo. They meant 17/5 (since there are 5 grades). 17/5 = 3.4

Each student who got an A on Paper 1 got an A in the course.
where does this "in the course" come from?
there's no information suggesting how much are these grades weighted, or any criterion directly helping make a judgement about whether these students got A or not.

i find some old IR questions are just weird.

It is mentioned in the question statement that average of all is what you get in the entire course. Weightage therefore is equal 1:1:1:1:1

The table below shows a gradebook. Letter grades of A, B, C, and D represent numerical grades of 4, 3, 2, and 1, respectively. Each student’s overall grade was determined by computing the average (arithmetic mean) of their grades on the first paper, the first quiz, the second paper, the second quiz, and the final project, and then rounding to the nearest whole number. If the average is exactly halfway between whole numbers, the grade will be rounded up.

project
lean CCBAB
Unette BABCA
Mia BCCDA
PhoebeABBAA
RobinDAADA
Sietske BBCCA
Sigrid BCCBB
StanleyABACA
VigBDCDB
YolettDCCAA
(Sort ↕ the table by clicking on the headers)

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true based on the information presented in the table. Otherwise, select No.


The first two can easily be checked from sorting data on final project. The answer is negative for both.

So, let me answer the third one.

It is given that ‘ Letter grades of A, B, C, and D represent numerical grades of 4, 3, 2, and 1, respectively.‘
Also,
Quote:

If the average is exactly halfway between whole numbers, the grade will be rounded up.

So, we check for students who have received A on first paper.
Phoebe: A,B,B,A,A so \(\frac{4+3+3+4+4}{5}\) or 3.6, which gets rounded up to 4. So yes A in the course.
Stanley: A,B,A,C,A so \(\frac{4+3+4+2+4}{5}\) or 3.4, which gets rounded down to 3. So no, he doesn’t get A in the course. He gets a B.

Again a NO for this portion too.

The 3rd question will require the computation. I have a small doubt on the third question.
When we do the computation for one of the students out of the two, Grade: AABBA, the computations comes as
4+4+3+3 + 4 = 18/5 = 3.6, does this rounds to 4? Because questions says it should be "exactly" halfway to be rounded but what if its more than halfway, can we round the number to 4?

­1. Each student who did not receive an A on the final project did not receive an A on either quiz. => No


Sort by Final Project, Iean is the case that doesn't match the statement

2. Each student who did not receive an A on either quiz did not receive an A on the final project. => No

Sort by Final Project, Sietske is the case that doesn't match the statement


3. Each student who got an A on Paper 1 got an A in the course. => No


Sort by Paper 1, we have Phoebe and Stanley
  • Phoebe: 5 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 5 => Avg is surely more than 4.5 => A
  • Stanley: 5 + 4 + 5 + 3 + 5 = 22 => Avg = 22/5 = 4.4 => B
So Stanley is the case that doesn't match the statement­

3 - You can do it without actually calculating, but it's a bit more of an average side.
Phoebe: (A B B A A) or you can write ( 4 3 3 4 4) clearly average would be a bit higher than 3.5 because 3 values of 4 and 2 values of 3.
Stanley: (A B A C A) or you can write (4 3 4 2 4) so clearly average is going to be less than 3.5 because 2 values of 4, 2 values of 3 will give us average 3.5 and the next value is 2 which is less then the 3.5 (average) so it will make total average a bit less than 3.5. and we are rounding to the nearest integer value for the grade so it will become less than A grade.

Does the statement: Each student who did not receive an A on either quiz = Each student who did not receive and A on both quiz?
Do they both mean the same?
If no, then what's the difference?

The word "either" means they did not receive an A on Quiz 1 or Quiz 2. This is different than them not receiving an A on Quiz 1 and Quiz 2.
