Given that if a ball is dropped from x feet, it bounces up to 2/3 x feet.
And the ball is dropped from 10 feet, that is x=10 feet,
So,before the first bounce it travels 10 feet distance.
Between first and second bounce it travels ![\frac{2}{3}* 10 + \frac{2}{3} * 10 = 20*(\frac{2}{3})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%2A%2010%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%2A%2010%20%3D%2020%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29)
Between second and third bounce, it travels ![20*(\frac{2}{3})^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=20%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E%7B2%7D)
Between third and fourth bounce, it travels ![20*(\frac{2}{3}) ^{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=20%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%20%5E%7B3%7D)
Like that between 29th and 30th bounce, it travels ![20*(\frac{2}{3} )^{29}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=20%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%29%5E%7B29%7D)
Hence total distance traveled is
![10+20*(\frac{2}{3} )+20*(\frac{2}{3})^{2} + 20*(\frac{2}{3}) ^{3}+......+20*(\frac{2}{3})^{29}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10%2B20%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%29%2B20%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%2B%2020%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%20%5E%7B3%7D%2B......%2B20%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E%7B29%7D)
=![10+20[(\frac{2}{3}) +(\frac{2}{3}) ^{2} +(\frac{2}{3}) ^{3} +.....+(\frac{2}{3} )^{29} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10%2B20%5B%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%20%2B%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%20%5E%7B2%7D%20%2B%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%20%5E%7B3%7D%20%2B.....%2B%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%29%5E%7B29%7D%20%5D)
= ![10+20[\frac{\frac{2}{3}*(1-(\frac{2}{3})^{29}) }{1-\frac{2}{3} }]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10%2B20%5B%5Cfrac%7B%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%2A%281-%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E%7B29%7D%29%20%20%7D%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%7D%5D)
= 10+20*2*(1-
)
= 49.9997 feet ≈ 50 feet approximately.
Hello!
We know our denominator is 60, because that is the total amount of cities. Now, we must find our numerator:
3 + 29 = 32
Fraction: 32/60
You can simplify this by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4:
32 ÷ 4 = 8 60 ÷ 4 = 15
FRACTION (SIMPLIFIED): 8/15
