Answer:

a. After the first bounce, the ball will be at 85% of 8 ft. After 2 bounces, it'll be at 85% of 85% of 8 feet. After 3 bounces, it'll be at (85% of) (85% of) (85% of 8 feet).  You can see where this is going. After n bounces the ball will be at

h(n) = (85\%)^n 6ft = (\frac{17}{20})^n(6ft\times 12\frac{in}{ft}) = (\frac{17}{20})^n\times72'

b. After 8 bounces we can apply the previous formula with n = 8 to get

h(8)=(\frac{17}{20})^8\times 72' = 19.62'

c. The solution to this point requires using exponential and logarithm equations; a more basic way would be trial and error using the previous h(n)increasing the value of n until we find a good value. I recommend using a spreadsheet for that; the condition will lead to the following inequality:

1>(\frac{17}{20})^n\times 72 Let's first isolate the fraction by dividing by 72.

(\frac{17}{20})^n  Now, to get numbers we can plug in a calculator, let's take the natural logarithm of both sides:

ln ((\frac{17}{20})^n) < ln \frac 1{72} \rightarrow n\times ln (\frac{17}{20}) < -ln72. Now the two quantities are known - or easy to get with any calculator, replacing them and solving for n we get:

-(0.16)n < - 4.27 \rightarrow n>26.31 Now, since n is an integer - you can't have a fraction of a bounce after all, you pick the integer right after that, or n>27.

Samantha soends 45 minutes at the gym for 6 days a week. how many hours does she spend at the gym
Alexxx [7]

45 minutes * 6 days = 270 minutes at the gum

but we need to change minutes to hours

1 hours = 60 minutes

270 minutes * 1 hr/60 minutes =

270/60 hours

divide top and bottom by 10

27/6

divide top and bottom by 3

9/2

4.5 hours

Simplify<br>1)5x+3=x+13<br>2)5/2x-1/X =1/6​
Artyom0805 [142]

Step-by-step explanation (Question 1):        

<u>Step 1: (Question 1): Subtract x from both sides.</u>

5x+3=x+13

5x+3−x=x+13−x

4x+3=13

<u>Step 2: (Question 1): Subtract 3 from both sides.</u>

4x+3−3=13−3

4x=10

<u>Step 3: (Question 1): Divide both sides by 4.</u>

4x/4 = 10/4

FIRST ANSWER: x = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation (Question 2):      

<u>Step 1: (Question 2): Multiply by LCM</u>

15x^2 - 6 = x

<u>Step 2: (Question 2): Solve 15x^2</u>

15x^2 - 6 = x:

x = 2/3

x = -3/5

<u>Step 3: (Question 2): Solve</u>

ANSWER: x=0.666667 or x=−0.6

See Attachment 1 for question 1 steps (FULL)

See Attachment 2 for question 2 steps (FULL)

Answer:    

1)   x = 5/2

2)  x=0.666667 or x=−0.6

 

Hope this helps.
