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! :)

How can you solve a multi step equation
Ivanshal [37]
If you are doing a multi step question that looks something like this: 23+(4)-4 or longer. You will have to use a formula called BEDMAS. It stands for brackets, exponents( which are little numbers on top of a number), then you deal with division, multiplication, addition, and subtraction. You will have to solve your equation in this order. If you don’t you will get another, answer.
