3. The height of a stack of cups is a function of the number of cups in the stack. If a 7.5% cup with a 1.5" lip isstacked vertically, determine a function that would provide you with the height based on any number of cups.Hint: Start with height of one cup and create a table, list, graph or description that describes the pattemn of the stack as an additionalcup is added.

Answer 1

Explaation:

We areto find the function that describes the pattenrn of the stack

Let the number of stacks be represented by n

So, if each lip is 1.5"

And the cup is 7.5"

Then the total length will be

Where n is the number of additional lip
