Answer: it will trave 56.89 meters before coming to rest.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric progression since the distance travelled (height) by the ball is reducing by a constant ratio, r. Since the number of times that the ball will bounce is infinite, then we would apply the formula for determining the sum of the terms in a geometric progression to infinity which is expressed as

S = a/(1 - r)

where

S = sum of the distance travelled by the ball

a = initial distance or height of the ball

r = common ratio

From the information given,

a = 128/9

r = (32/3)/(128/9) = 0.75

Therefore,

S = (128/9)/(1 - 0.75) = 56.89 meters

I don’t know how to solve this
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) =( 8, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 5)

m = \frac{-5+3}{0-8} = \frac{-2}{-8} = \frac{1}{4}

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 5 ) ⇒ c = - 5

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5 ← equation of line
