Answer:

H = 60(3/4)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

After each bounce, the height it reach is 3/4 the previous one.

Let the height of nth bounce be denoted as h_n and the first bounce is h_1.

We are given that h_1 = 60 cm. Following the rule in the problem, we get:

h_2 = (3/4)h_1 = (3/4)60

h_3 = (3/4)h_2 = (3/4)*(3/4)60 = 60(3/4)^2

h_4 = (3/4)h_3 = (3/4)*60(3/4)^2= 60(3/4)^3

We see that h_n = 60(3/4)^n is the formula for the height for the nth bounce. Therefore, H = 60(3/4)^x is the answer.

I hope this helps! :)

If vector u = <-3.5, -1.5> and vector v = <-1.25, 2.25>, which graph shows the resulting vector for 2v − u?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that vector addition is scalar addition.

Given vectors are u = <-3.5, -1.5> and v = <-1.25, 2.25>

2v = < -2.5, 4.5>

2v - u = < -2.5, 4.5> - <-3.5, -1.5> = < -2.5 - (-3.5) , 4.5 -(-1.5) >

2v-u = < 1 , 6 >

This vector is basically i + 6j which is drawn in option D
