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

Hey, looks like when she doesn't study, she ALWAYS fails. Don't mean to insult though.

Let's see the difference between the three numbers. 63-58=5. 68-63=5.

We know the difference between each assessment she scores is 5 now!!

Let's put it to use.

Although you don't have multiple choice answers... 

after 4 assessments(not including first 3), her score will be above 85!!

Including the first 3 assessments, her score would be above 85 after 7 assessments!!

anyways, I hope this helps!! 

Answer 2

So I would make a table...
   Points:      Number of Assessments:
     58        ║     1
     63        ║     2
     68        ║     3
     73        ║     4
     78        ║     5
     83        ║     6
     88        ║     7

So, it would take her 7 assessments to get above 85%. I hope this helped!
