Answer:

0.11 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Every bounce, the ball bounces to 75% of its previous bounce, so the first few bounces will give us heights of

20 ft (0 bounces)

20 × 0.75 = 15 ft (1 bounce)

20 × 0.75 × 0.75 = 11.25 ft (2 bounces)

We can express the continued multiplication by 0.75 as an exponent, so that after the nth bounce, the ball will bounce $20(0.75)^{n}$ feet. Plugging in 18 for n gets us

$20(0.75)^{18}\approx 0.11$ feet.

Ashley bought 4 packages of juice boxs in each package. She. gave 2 juice boxs to each of her friends. How many juice boxes does

Harlamova29_29 [7]

I am assuming there are more than one juice box in a package so if the amount of juice boxes in each package is X and there are four packages 4X.
So 4X - 2= Answer

If we make it so that there are 6 juice boxes in each package and use the same method this is what we'll get:
24 - 2= 22

22 would be the juice boxes left over.

I hope this answers your question, if it doesn't use the same method with the number of juice boxes in a package.
