When Rosa tripped and fell into a muddy puddle at lunch (she was so embarrassed!), she knew

exactly what would happen: within ten minutes, the two girls who saw her fall would each tell
four people what they had seen. Within the next ten minutes, those eight students would each
tell four more people. Rosa knew this would continue until everyone in the entire school was
talking about her muddy experience. If there are 2016 students in the school, how many
"generations” of gossiping would it take before everyone in the school was talking about Rosa?
How many minutes would it take? Graph the situation.
