No, Angela cannot achieve the class mean as it would require scoring>100% in the final
exam.
OR
Assume Angela scores 100% on both exams:
581
Highest possible Total mark =78+59+81+73+ 90+100+100=581 Highest possible average= =83

No, Angela could not achieve the class mean as she could only average 83 if she scored
100% on all remaining assignments.
