There are 12 inches in a foot, so 9ft = 108in. Also, 80% = 0.8. Therefore the formula is:
h(n) = 108 * 0.8^n.
To find the bounce height after 10 bounces, substitute n=10 into the equation:
h(n) = 108 * 0.8^10 = 11.60in (2.d.p.).
Finally to find how many bounces happen before the height is less than one inch, substitute h(n) = 1, then rearrage with logarithms to solve for the power, x:
108 * 0.8^x = 1;
0.8^x = 1/108;
Ln(0.8^x) = ln(1/108);
xln(0.8) = ln(1\108);
x = ln(1/108) / ln(0.8) = -4.682 / -0.223 = 21 bounces
Hi there!
Recall the volume of a pyramid is:
V = 1/3(bh)
We are given the volume and side length of the base. Find the area of the base:
A = s²
A = (5xy²)² = 25x²y⁴
Plug in the solved for base:
125x³y³ = 1/3(25x²y⁴)h
To isolate for h, begin by multiplying both sides by 3:
375x³y³ = (25x²y⁴)h
Divide both sides by 25x²y⁴. Use the following exponent property:
xᵃ / xᵇ = xᵃ⁻ᵇ
Thus:
375x³y³ / 25x²4⁴ = 15x/y.
The height must be equal to:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
- Daily charge = $68.80
- Charge per mile = $0.08
- Target distance = 325 miles
- Money limit = $370
<u>Required inequality:</u>
<u>Solving for d:</u>
- 68.8d + 26 ≤ 370
- 68.8d ≤ 344
- d ≤ 344/68.8
- d ≤ 5
Up to 5 days is the answer
30 ft should be the answer
