The height of the ball initially is 54 inches. The common ratio has been provided which is 0.750.
The explicit formular for the geometric sequence is shown as;
The explicit formula is shown as;
54 x (0.750)^9
The rest is simply to solve for the height on the 10th bounce
Your answer is in the picture above
You have to divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). For example, 1/2 is 0.5
However, some end up as never-ending decimals, like 1/3, which converts to 0.333 repeating.
Answer:
approx 7.81 Exactly: √61
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Pythag theorem: 5^2 + 6^2 = hyp^2 (line AS)
25 + 36 = 61
hyp = √61 or about 7.81
