Learning to Skate

Emily Hughes just got word that she was picked for the Olympics!

When she was just learning to skate, it took her a long time before she could skate for long periods of time.

·       On her first day, she skated just 5 minutes.

·       On her second day, she skated for 10 minutes.

·       The third day she skated for 15 minutes

Every day, she skated for 5 additional minutes.  How many minutes did she skate on the 7th day?
