I flew my kite last weekend and was excited to see just how high it would fly.  I noticed that every time a gust of wind came by, the kite would go up 10 feet.  I was cautious, so I reeled it back in 4 feet.  Then another gust of wind came by and up it went again 10 feet, and I brought it back down 4 feet.  If I wanted my kite to fly 100 feet in the sky, how many gusts of wind do I need to get it up that high?
