the puppy's weight gain continues, how many pounds will
the puppy weigh at 5 months?

Sorry, that's not right. It seems that you tried to add a
common difference to 22, but these sequences are not arithmetic sequences.
There is a different relationship that you need to find.
The correct answer is 24.
Student saw that the first difference is 5,
and assumed that each weight given is always 5 more pounds than the last
(would choose 27 in this case, because of adding 5 to 22).

Sorry, that's not right. For these kinds of problems, you need to find a
pattern between the numbers.
The correct answer is 24.
Not sure how 30 could be chosen.

The correct answer is 24.
Could have chosen 25 if only checked the last difference of 3.
