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.
The point-slope form:

We have the points (1, 2) and (3, 6). Substitute:

First bring 3x to the other side, which will give you -2y= -16-3y. Then divide everything by -2, which will give you y=8+3/2x
