Answer:

Option D is right

Explanation:

Given that Theresa earned scores of 88 points, 84 points, 88 points, and 91 points on four tests

Thus total points she got in 4 tests = 88+84+88+91

= 351

If she has to obtain average score of 90 points,

then we have for 5 tests average should be 90

Hence total marks required = no of test *average

=5(90) =450

In 4 tests total =351

Minimum marks she must get in 5th test to get average score of 90 and above is

=450-351

=99

Option D
