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.

Verify by direct substitution that the given power series is a solution of the indicated differential equation. [Hint: For a pow
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The given power series y =\sum^{\infty}_{n=0} {(-1)^n x^{2n}} is a solution of the differential equation (1+x^2)y' + 2xy = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very trivial exercise, follow the steps below for the solution:

Step 1: Since n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ........, Substitute the values of n into equation (1) below.

y =\sum^{\infty}_{n=0} {(-1)^n x^{2n}}.....................(1)

y = 1 - x^2 + x^4 - x^6 + x^8.........

Step 2: Find the derivative of y, i.e. y'

y' = -2x + 4x^3 - 6x^5 + 8x^7 .............

Step 3: Substitute y and y' into equation (2) below:

(1+x^2)y' + 2xy = 0\\\\(1+x^2)(-2x + 4x^3 - 6x^5 + 8x^7......) + 2x(1 - x^2 + x^4 - x^6 + x^8.......) = 0\\\\-2x+ 4x^3 - 6x^5 + 8x^7........ - 2x^3 +4x^5 - 6x^7 + 8x^9 ......+ 2x - 2x^3 + 2x^5 - 2x^7 + 2x^9...... = 0\\\\0 = 0

(Verified)

Since the LHS = RHS = 0, the given power series y =\sum^{\infty}_{n=0} {(-1)^n x^{2n}} is a solution of the differential equation (1+x^2)y' + 2xy = 0
