We have been given that you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each bounce. We are asked to find the total distance traveled by up and down from the time it was dropped from the window until the 25th bounce.
We will use sum of geometric sequence formula to solve our given problem.
, where,
a = First term of sequence,
r = Common ratio,
n = Number of terms.
For our given problem 
, 
and 
.
Therefore, the ball will travel 100 meters and option B is the correct choice.
PART A:
The given quadratic equation is 2x²-10x-8=0
The radicand is given by b²-4ac where a, b, and c are the constants in a quadratic form ax²+bx+c
From the given equation, we have
a = 2
b = -10
c = -8
Radicand b²-4ac = (-10)² - 4(2)(-8) = 100 + 64 = 164
The radicand is >0 hence the quadratic equation has two distinct roots
PART B:
4x²-12x+5 = 0
We can use the factorization method to solve the equation
Firstly, we multiply 4 by 5 to get 20
Then we find the pair of numbers that multiply gives 20 and sum gives -12
The pair of number is -2 and -10
Rewriting the equation
4x²-2x-10x+5 = 0
2x(2x-1)-5(2x-1) = 0
(2x-1)(2x-5) = 0
2x-1 = 0 and 2x-5 = 0
x = 1/2 and x = 5/2
Answer:
Approximantly 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Circumference = pi times diameter
63/pi = diameter

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total students receiving financial aid are 6101
Students who are graduate and receiving financial aid are 1879
Probability is the ratio of the favorable and total outcomes
So, the probability is given by
Answer:
8 in^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
F = P * A
22 = 2.75 * A
A = 22/ 2.75
A = 8 in^2.
