Suppose a ball is thrown upward to a height of h 0 meters. After each​ bounce, the ball rebounds to a fraction r of its previous

height. Let h Subscript n be the height after the nth bounce. Consider the following values of h 0 and r. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below. h0=30​, r=0.25
a- find the first 4 terms of the sequence of heights(hn)
b- find a general expression for the nth term of the sequence (hn)

Answer:

A)1st term:45

2nd term:48.75

3rd term:49.6875

4th term:49.921875

B) Sₙ = h₀ + 2h₀((∞, n=1) Σrⁿ)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

h₀ = Initial height of the ball = 30

r = Rebound fraction = 0.25

a) The arithmetic sequence of bouncing balls is given by the following;

Sₙ=h₀+2h₀(r¹+r²+r³+r⁴.........rⁿ)

The first term of the sequence is;

S₁ = h₀ + 2h₀r¹

S₁ = 30 + (2 × 30 × 0.25)

S₁ = 45

The second term of the sequence is;

S₂ = h₀ + 2h₀(r¹+r²)

S₂ = 30 + (2 × 30 × (0.25 + 0.25²)) = 48.75

The third term of the sequence is;

S₃ = h₀ + 2h₀(r¹ + r² + r³) = 30 + (2 × 30 × (0.25 + 0.25² + 0.25³)) = 49.6875

S₄ = h₀ + 2h₀(r¹ + r² + r³ + r⁴)

S₄ = 30 + (2 × 30 × (0.25 + 0.25² + 0.25³ + 0.25⁴)) = 49.921875

B) The general expression for the nth term of the sequence is;

Sₙ = h₀ + 2h₀((∞, n=1) Σrⁿ)

Find the molar mass in grams of <br> CaSO4 * 2H20<br> grams
adoni [48]

Answer:

172 g/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

CaSO4 . 2H2O

Atomic mass of

Ca = 40

S = 32

O = 16

H = 1

Molar mass = 40 + 32 + (16×4) + 2{(1×2)+16}

= 72 + 64 + 2(18)

= 136 + 36

= 172 g/mol

A slice of pizza costs $1.57. How much will 27 slices cost?
elena-s [515]

It will be cost $ 42.39 for 27 slices of pizza

<h3>Further Explanation</h3>

A slice of pizza = $1.57

27 slices of pizza = the number of pizza x price/slice

                              = 27 x 1.57

We are going to use standard algorithm to solve this multiplication

  1.57        ⇒ 2 decimal places

<u>     27</u>    x   ⇒ 0 decimal place

 1099

<u> 314   </u>+

42.39        ⇒ 2 decimal places

In decimal number multiplication, the process is the same with the whole number multiplication. Only always remember when to put the decimal point in the answer.
