In the domino chain from the previous screens, the 30th domino would be much taller than any skyscraper.
Suppose that the dominoes grow by a factor of 1.2 instead of 1.5.
Which object is closest to the height of the 30th domino?
1. A dog
2. A door
3. A large house
4. A small skyscraper
Please explain why you chose which answer you chose!

you lef out the part of the question that says what the height of the first domino is so I will say it's some x.

first domino is x tall. the next one x × 1.2, third in a row

x × 1.2 × 1.2, 4th in a row x × 1.2 × 1.2 × 1.2

another way of writing the 4th in a row is x × 1.2³

the same applies for the 30th domino which has a height of x × 1.2²⁹ = x × 197.81

if x is 1cm the height of the 30th domino would be 197.81cm which is about the height of a door but for the different values of the first domino (x) you will get different anwsers

hope this helps :)
