A ball bounces back 0.6 of its height on every bounce. If a ball is dropped 200 feet, how high does it bounce the fifth bounce?

Round to the nearest tenth.

It is asking you to slice off 40% of the bounce height in each subsequent bounce.


So you start with full height 1, that's n = 0 bounces. Then after n = 1 bounce the new height is .6. After the second bounce, n = 2, the height becomes .6 X .6 = .36. And after n = 3, we have .6 X .6 X .6 = .216


So by induction we see that h(n = 5) = .6^n = .6^5 = 0.07776 = .078 of its original height or H = .078*200 = 15.6 ft. after five bounces. ANS. 16.0 if rounded to the nearest tenth

consider the formula F=NM/P, where F represents the fertility of the soil. N represents the amount of nutrients in the soil. M r
Ahat [919]

The options are missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Measurement unit for F = (Nutrients • Moisture)/Pollutants.

Option C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given the formula; F = NM/P

where;

N is the amount of nutrients in the soil

M is the amount of moisture in the soil.

P is the amount of pollutants in the soil

From the definition of the terms above, the units of the can be expressed as;

N = nutrients

M = moisture

P = pollutants

Thus, the measurement unit for fertility is;

F = NM/P = (Nutrients • Moisture)/Pollutants

Is (x + 7) a factor of f(x) = x3 − 3x2 + 2x − 8? Use either the remainder theorem or the factor theorem to explain your reasonin
guajiro [1.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x + 7 is a factor of f(x), then f(-7) = 0.

f(-7) = (-7)³ − 3(-7)² + 2(-7) − 8

f(-7) = -343 − 147 − 14 − 8

f(-7) = -512

x + 7 is not a factor of f(x).
