Answer:

.

Step-by-step explanation:

Final Answer : She will never complete 1 foot

Steps:

1) We will find the maximum value of this process, when this is carried out infinite times.

This process goes like a Infinite GP, whose

First term,a = 1/2ft.

Common Ratio, r = 1/2ft.

Maximum value of this process is One Foot when the athlete jumps forever or Practically, she will never complete her 1 foot.

Hence, Athlete will never complete. her complete .

Here,

As shown in Number line, since we are taking half distance of the previous one.

Starting from 1/2 ft. ,and ending at 1 foot.

The value always tends towardd 1 but never reaches one.
