A sheet of notebook paper is approximately 0.003 in. thick. Tear the sheet in half so that there are two sheets. Repeat so that

there are four sheets. Repeat again so that there are 8 sheets. Continue in this fashion until the paper has been halved 50 times. If it were possible to complete the process, how high would the final pile be?

Answer:

3.3776997 x 10¹² inches high

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of sheets obtained after each tear (N) is described by an exponential relationship, where 'n' is the number of tears:

N=2^n

For n = 50:

N=2^{50}\\N=1.1258999*10^{15}

If each sheet is 0.003 in thick, the stack would have a height of:

h = 1.1258999*10^{15}*0.003\\h= 3.3776997*10^{12}\ in

The final pile would be 3.3776997 x 10¹² inches high.

A mountain climber descends a cliff at a rate of 2.5 ft/second. Write an equation modeling the change in elevation (variable = c
Ahat [919]

The equation which represents the change in elevation of the mountain climber as he descends the cliff is; c = -2.5s.

<h3>What is the change in elevation c of the climber in terms of seconds?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the change in elevation of the climber is to.be represented by c and since the rate of descending the cliff is given as; 2.5 ft/second.

Therefore, the required equation is; c = -2.5s.
