Answer:

the grade point average (GPA) of the student is 2.27

If the Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.00 or greater, the student did not make the Dean's list.

Explanation:

Given that:

A student grade are as follows:

B --- 3

F --- 0

B ---- 3

B ----- 3

C ------- 2

Those courses had the corresponding numbers of credit hours 4, 2, 1, 2, and 2.

The grading system assigns quality points to letter grades as follows:

A = 4; B=3; C=2; D=1; F=0

The sample mean simply implies the sum of the products of the value and the weights divided by the total weights;

i.e

$\overline x = (\sum xf)/(n )$

$\overline x = (3(4)+0(2)+3(1)+3(2)+2(2))/(4+2+1+2+2 )$

$\overline x = (12+0+3+6+4)/(11 )$

$\overline x = (25)/(11 )$

$\overline x =$ 2.27

the grade point average (GPA) of the student is 2.27

If the Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.00 or greater, the student did not make the Dean's list.
