Let the lowest score be x.
<u>The 3 consecutive even scores are:</u>
1st score = x
2nd score = x + 2
3rd score = x + 4
-
<u>Sum of their score is 270:</u>
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270
-
<u>Solve x:</u>
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 270
3x + 6 = 270
3x = 264
x = 88
-
<u>Find their scores:</u>
1st score = x = 88
2nd score = x + 2 = 88 + 2 = 90
3rd score = x + 4 = 88 + 4 = 92
-
Answer: The scores are 88, 90 and 92
I believe the answer is C
Looking at the problem I think the answers are C, D, AND E
Rate of change is 4. change of y over change of x= 20/5
