Question

Rita is spending more time at home to study and practice math. Her efforts are finally paying off. On her first assessment she scored 58 points, then she scores 63 and 68 on her next two assessments. If her scores continued to increase at the same rate, on which assessments will she be scoring above 85? Select all that apply. ​

Answer 1

7th

Explanation:

63 - 58 = 5

68-63 = 5

She is adding 5 points each time

a1 = 58

d = 5

a2 = 63

a3 = 68

a4 = 58+5 = 73

a5 = 73+5 = 78

a6 = 78+5 = 83

a7 = 83+5 = 88

This is the first assessment greater then 85, so the 7th assessment
