Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Winnona took 5 tests and retake Test 5. So the mean score for this question is Total number of scores divide by Total number of tests is equals to 87 :

Let Test 5's score be x,

Let mean score be 87,

[tex] \frac{95 + 85 + 96 + 97 + x}{5} = 87[/tex]

Next you have to solve the value of x :

[tex]373 + x = 87 \times 5 \\ 373 + x = 435 \\ 373 + x - 373 = 435 - 373 \\ x = 62 \: \: \: scores[/tex]
