Well you need to explain what is going on here so try to rephrase this.
Let steph score be x
Then kyrie score is 2x-5
Sum of the two scores is 55
Therefore x+2x-5=55
3x-5=55
3x=60
x=20
Therefore steph score is 20
And kyrie score is 2(20)-5
40-5=35
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

7 7/8
mixed number to improper fraction :
Take ur whole number (7) and multiply it by ur denominator (8)....7 x 8 = 56...now add that to ur numerator (7)....56 + 7 = 63....now put that over ur original denominator (8)...and that gives us 63/8
