Since you're given the base for the perimeter of the rectangle, you can solve this question quickly.
First, you multiply 21 by 2, because there are two bases to a rectangle.
You'll get 42, and you will have to do 60-42 to find the perimeter for the remaining two sides.
60-42 will give you 18, so you can divide that by 2 because there are two other sides, giving you 9.
Now you have the side lengths 21 and 9. Area is base*height, so you can multiply 21*9 and get 189.
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 189 meters
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
The first number is x axis while the second is y
1/3x + y = 4....subtract 1/3x from both sides
y = -1/3x + 4 <===
