You can work out the percentage change and that would help you work out the rate of appreciation :)
The formula is ((new value - old value)/old value) * 100.
So you do 
Therefore the rate of appreciation is 8% p/a.
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
that is it. if u do ur measure correctly
I would say (I am abbreviating square root to sqrt)
1. 4 sqrt(8488) = 4 sqrt(2x2x2122) = 8 sqrt(2122)
2. 3 sqrt(6936) = 3 sqrt(6x34x34) = 102 sqrt (6)
3. 2 sqrt(8648) = 2 sqrt(2x2x2162) = 4 sqrt(2162)
After every drop,the ball bounces to half it's previous height. With that understood.
1st drop -The ball drops 10m
1st bounce - 5m up
2nd drop - 5m down
2nd bounce - 2.5m up
3rd drop - 2.5m down
3rd bounce - 1.25m up
4th drop - 1.25m down
4th bounce - 0.625m up
5th/last drop - 0.625m down
To find the total vertical distance, you add them all.
10+5+5+2.5+2.5+1.25+1.25+0.625+0.625
=29.25m travelled in all.
0.21 is greater than 0.12 because it in the 20s
