A ball falls from the height of 10 m.
1st bounce: 0.5 * 10 = 5 m
2nd bounce: 5 * 0.5 = 2.5 m
3rd bounce: 2.5 * 0.5 = 1.25 m
4th bounce: 1.25 * 0.5 = 0.625 m
After that the ball hits the ground the 5th time.
Total distance:
10 + ( 5 * 2 ) + ( 2.5 * 2 ) + ( 1.25 * 2 ) + ( 0.625 * 2 ) =
= 10 + 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 1.25 = 28.75 m
Answer: The total vertical distance the ball has traveled when it hits the ground the 5th time is  28.75 m.

Answer: 28.75

Step-by-step explanation: You honestly just need to divide each distance by 2 then add them together. First time it drops it goes down 10 meters. Then up five and back down. Then 2.5 meters then back down. Then 1.25, back down then .625 the back down.

At the end if you add together the total vertical distance you should get 28.75. If that is wrong well then the questions needs to be worded differently.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Mr. Molesky observes a group of monkeys for 24 hours to learn about their behavior. He records how long they slept (in hours), how many bananas they ate, gender, age (in years), and the specific breed of monkey.

(a) What are the individuals in this data set?

(b) Identify the variables that were recorded, and indicate whether each one is categorical or quantitative?

Solution:

(a)

The term "individuals", in statistics, implies or denotes the objects or people included in a statistical study.

In this case it is provided that Mr. Molesky observes a group of monkeys for 24 hours to learn about their behavior.

So, the "individuals" in this data set are the monkeys.

(b)

Categorical variables belong to a certain category or label values. Such as gender of a person, state from which a person is from, color of the marble and so on.

Quantitative variables are those variables that assume numerical values and represent some sort of measurement. Such as height, weight, annual income of the people working at the same place and so on.

In this case the variables are:

Number of bananas the monkeys ate - Quantitative variable

Gender - Categorical variable

Age (in years) -  Quantitative variable

Specific breed of monkey - Categorical variable

Which equation shows the correct use of the Power of Products Property?
Vadim26 [7]
The power of products property states that for number enclosed in a bracket or parenthesis, if it is raised to a power, it must be multiplied to the power of the enclosed number no matter how different the base is. You cannot add it because it is not raised. You can only add it if they have the same base. But in this problem, you will just multiply it. The breakdown of the solution to this problem is shown below. So,
<span><span>• (2x⁵y²)³=(21x3x5*3y2*3) = 6x15y6</span><span>
