Answer:

option B is correct.

Alfred will be able to type after 4 week of practice is, 57 words per minute

Explanation:

As per the statement:

Alfred first time tested himself, he could type = 45 words per minute.

After the first week, he can type 48 words per minute.

After the second week, he can type 51 words per minute.

Constant ratio =
+3 \text{words per week}

or we can say that, Alfred is increasing his speed with 3 more words per week.

After the third week, he can type 54 words per minute.

then;

After the four week of practice, he can type 57 words per minute.
