Answer:

Jay's average score is 70.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Jay scores 75 out of 100 in class assignments, this means the average will be = [tex]0.30\times75=22.5[/tex]

Jay scores 65 out of 100 in the final exam, average is = [tex]0.35\times65=22.75[/tex]

Jay scores 72 out of 100 in the field project, average is = [tex]0.35\times72=25.2[/tex]
