Suppose you have a sword. You want to raise its level by using gems. For each gem you use, there is a 50% chance you will succeed and 50% chance you will fill. A success will raise the level by one. If the sword is at level 5 or greater, a failure reduces the sword by 1 level; if the sword at a level less than 5, a failure has no effects. How many gems can you expect to use to raise a level 1 sword to level 9?

People who live in Cape Carmel major reasons for their worry is that there are many homes built at, or nearly at, sea level along the coast of Cape Carmel. The total value of these homes is more than 100 million dollars. Ice melting increases the sea level. Global sea level is measured relative to the sea level in the year 1870. If the sea level in 1870 is represented by 0 inches, then Cape Carmel sea level has risen from 1 6.8 inches to 8.4 inches in the years from 1992 to 2012. If the sea level rises to 24 inches, it will have devastating effects on the homes along the coast of Cape Carmel. Many of the Cape Carmel residents want to know if, and when, they should sell their property before it is washed away into the sea. You must help residents understand more about the rising sea level in Cape Carmel to help them predict when they should sell their homes. 11.Create a graph (carefully scaled by hand, or on Excel) that shows BOTH the linear and the exponential model over ALL of the…
