Question 1090224: a monkey starts climbing up a 20 ft tall tree each minute it hops 3 ft and slips back 2 ft how much would it take
the monkey to reach the top? Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! So each minute, the monkey moves .
So after 17 minutes, the monkey is at 17 feet.
The next hop will put it at 20 feet.
If it doesn't slide back, then it's done.
So it should only take 17 minutes to get to 20 feet.
