1)The government of a developing country is implementing a new reading program in which each individual who can read spends one year teaching two others to read. At the end of the year, the original individual can stop, but each of the two people who just learned to read must now spend a year teaching two more people to read. If 1,000 people can read at the start of the program, after 10 years how many people will be able to read?








2)A flying goose met a flock of geese in the air and said: "Hello, hundred geese!" The leader of the flock answered to him: "There is not a hundred of us. If there were as many of us as there are and as many more and half many more and quarter as many more and you, goose, also flied with us, then there would be hundred of us." How many geese were there in the flock?
