Answer:

0.3125

Step-by-step explanation:

If it decreases by 50% each time it hits the ground then all you have to do is divide 10 by 2 (50%) each time it bounces.

10 / 2 = 5 (first bounce)

5 / 2 = 2.5 (second bounce)

2.5 / 2 = 1.25 (third bounce)

Ect. . .

Until on the fifth bounce it is 0.3125m high.

The fuel efficiency (mpg rating) for cars has been increasing steadily since 1980. The formula for a car's fuel efficiency for a
Lisa [10]

Answer:

a) In the interval of [1980,1983].

b) In the interval of [1991, 1996].

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuel efficiency:

The fuel efficiency, for the cars, in x years after 1980, is given by:

E(x) = 0.36x + 15.9

15.9 is the fuel efficiency in 1980.

a. In what years was the average fuel efficiency for cars less than 17 mpg (in interval form)?

From 1980 to:

E(x) < 17

0.36x + 15.9 < 17

0.36x < 1.1

x < \frac{1.1}{0.36}

x < 3.06

3.06 = 1980 + 3 = 1983. So

In the interval of [1980,1983].

b. In what years was the average fuel efficiency for cars more than 20 mpg (in interval form)?

From x until 1996.

E(x) > 20

0.36x + 15.9 > 20

0.36x > 4.1

x > \frac{4.1}{0.36}

x > 11.38

11.38 = 1980 + 11 = 1991. So

In the interval of [1991, 1996].
