Jalen is in a 24-hour dance-a-thon as part of a fundraiser. He raised $50 in the first hour of the competition, then another $60 in the second hour, then another $72 in the third hour. If this pattern continues, what is the total amount of money he will raise if he stays for the entire competition?

$786

Step-by-step explanation:

50, 60, 72

find the difference between the first and second hour earnings to get 10.

get the difference of the second and third to get 12.

we realize that they are in increasing with even numbers from 10 going further, ie, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28etc

you will get $786.
