Answer:

-2/4 , -3/8 , 5/16 , 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given inputs:

-3/8 5/16 -2/4 1/2

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 16.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

-3/8 5/16 -2/4 1/2

-6/16 5/16 -8/16 8/16

Sorting this table by the numerators of the equivalent fractions in order from least to greatest:

-2/4 -3/8 5/16 1/2

-8/16 < -6/16 < 5/16 < 8/16

Therefore, the sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

-2/4 < -3/8 < 5/16 < 1/2

4. a) A ping pong ball has a 75% rebound ratio. When you drop it from a height of k feet, it bounces and bounces endlessly. If t

Klio2033 [76]

First part of question:

Find the general term that represents the situation in terms of k.

The general term for geometric series is:

$a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}$

$a_{1}$ = the first term of the series

$r$ = the geometric ratio

$a_{1}$ would represent the height at which the ball is first dropped. Therefore:

$a_{1} = k$

We also know that the ball has a rebound ratio of 75%, meaning that the ball only bounces 75% of its original height every time it bounces. This appears to be our geometric ratio. Therefore:

$r=\frac{3}{4}$

Our general term would be:

$a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}$

$a_{n}=k(\frac{3}{4}) ^{n-1}$

Second part of question:

If the ball dropped from a height of 235ft, determine the highest height achieved by the ball after six bounces.

$k$ represents the initial height:

$k = 235\ ft$

$n$ represents the number of times the ball bounces:

$n = 6$

Plugging this back into our general term of the geometric series:

$a_{n}=k(\frac{3}{4}) ^{n-1}$

$a_{n}=235(\frac{3}{4}) ^{6-1}$

$a_{n}=235(\frac{3}{4}) ^{5}$

$a_{n}=55.8\ ft$

$a_{n}$ represents the highest height of the ball after 6 bounces.

Third part of question:

If the ball dropped from a height of 235ft, find the total distance traveled by the ball when it strikes the ground for the 12th time. 

This would be easier to solve if we have a general term for the <em>sum </em>of a geometric series, which is:

$S_{n}=\frac{a_{1}(1-r^{n})}{1-r}$

We already know these variables:

$a_{1}= k = 235\ ft$

$r=\frac{3}{4}$

$n = 12$

Therefore:

$S_{n}=\frac{(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})}{1-\frac{3}{4} }$

$S_{n}=\frac{(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})}{\frac{1}{4} }$

$S_{n}=(4)(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})$

$S_{n}=910.22\ ft$

Solve for y. 3=7(1-1)<br><br>(it isn't 2)

laiz [17]

Answer:

First off, I can't solve for y, there is no y variable.

Second, 3 = 7 ( 1 - 1 ) is not true because 3 ≠ 0 ( 3 doesn't equal 0 ) :

3 = 7 ( 1 - 1 )

3 = 7 ( 0 ) ( Simplify Parenthesis )

3 = 0 ( Multiply 7 and 0 )

3 ≠ 0
