The <em>maximum</em> height of the ball after its third bounce is equal to 3.568 feet.

<h3>What is the maximum height of a ball at the third bounce?</h3>

In this question we are aware that the <em>maximum</em> height reached by the ball decreases <em>linearly</em> after each bounce. To determine that height, we must take advantage of the recursive formula described in statement:

n = 0

a₀ = 10 ft

n = 1

a₁ = 0.85 · 10 - 1

a₁ = 8.5 - 1

a₁ = 7.5 ft

n = 2

a₂ = 0.85 · 7.5 - 1

a₂ = 5.375 ft

n = 3

a₃ = 0.85 · 5.375 - 1

a₃ = 3.568 ft

The <em>maximum</em> height of the ball after its third bounce is equal to 3.568 feet.

Alika [10]

Answer:

    x              y

    5            20

    15           10

    45           5

Step-by-step explanation:

Pattern x:

Start with 5.

Multiply by 3: 5 * 3 = 15

Multiply by 3: 15 * 3 = 45

Pattern x:

Start with 20.

Multiply by 1/2: 20 * 1/2 = 10

Multiply by 1/2: 10 * 1/2 = 5

    x              y

    5            20

    15           10

    45           5
