Mr bean tries to push his car up an 800 yard slope to a gas station. in one hour he pushes the car 200 yards up the hill. the next hour he rests and the car rolls back 100 yards. how long does it take to reach the top of the hill if he keeps pushing and resting

Goal= 800 yards.
For every 200 yards he pushes in an hour, he ends up resting and it goes back a 100 yards the next hour after.

so (200-100)+(200-100)+(200-100)+(200-100)+(200-100)+(200-100)+(200).
2 hours + 2 hours + 2 hours + 2 hours + 2 hours + 2 hours + 1 hour = 13 hours.

So it will take 13 hours for Mr. Bean to push up his car up to the gas station.
