In order to enter the competition, the student must score a total of at least 440 points on all five tests.
The scores on the first four tests are 95, 86, 78, and 85, which add up to 95 + 86 + 78 + 85 = 344.
To find the minimum score needed on the last test, subtract the sum of the scores on the first four tests from the minimum required total score: 440 - 344 = 96.
Therefore, three possible scores on the last test to enter the competition are 96, 97, and 98.
The correct answer is F. Three possible scores are 96, 97, and 98.
