let the number of students be x. The sum of all their ages = 40x

120 joined

total is x+120

The sum of all their ages = 40x+ 120*32

=40x + 3840

average age now is 36

40x+3840 / x+120 =36

40x+3820 = 36(x+120)

40x+3840 =36x + 4320

40x-36x= 4320-3840

4x= 480

x= 120

initially there were 120. 120 joined. so total isd 240 students

What if your liability insurance could be lowered if you are a student with an average or better.?

Lowering liability insurance based on a student's academic performance could be a beneficial incentive for students to maintain good grades. Insurance companies may view students with higher grades as more responsible and less likely to engage in risky behaviors, leading to fewer insurance claims. This could result in reduced premiums for students with good academic standing.
