4. a) A ping pong ball has a 75% rebound ratio. When you drop it from a height of k feet, it bounces and bounces endlessly. If t

Klio2033 [76]

First part of question:

Find the general term that represents the situation in terms of k.

The general term for geometric series is:

$a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}$

$a_{1}$ = the first term of the series

$r$ = the geometric ratio

$a_{1}$ would represent the height at which the ball is first dropped. Therefore:

$a_{1} = k$

We also know that the ball has a rebound ratio of 75%, meaning that the ball only bounces 75% of its original height every time it bounces. This appears to be our geometric ratio. Therefore:

$r=\frac{3}{4}$

Our general term would be:

$a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}$

$a_{n}=k(\frac{3}{4}) ^{n-1}$

Second part of question:

If the ball dropped from a height of 235ft, determine the highest height achieved by the ball after six bounces.

$k$ represents the initial height:

$k = 235\ ft$

$n$ represents the number of times the ball bounces:

$n = 6$

Plugging this back into our general term of the geometric series:

$a_{n}=k(\frac{3}{4}) ^{n-1}$

$a_{n}=235(\frac{3}{4}) ^{6-1}$

$a_{n}=235(\frac{3}{4}) ^{5}$

$a_{n}=55.8\ ft$

$a_{n}$ represents the highest height of the ball after 6 bounces.

Third part of question:

If the ball dropped from a height of 235ft, find the total distance traveled by the ball when it strikes the ground for the 12th time. 

This would be easier to solve if we have a general term for the <em>sum </em>of a geometric series, which is:

$S_{n}=\frac{a_{1}(1-r^{n})}{1-r}$

We already know these variables:

$a_{1}= k = 235\ ft$

$r=\frac{3}{4}$

$n = 12$

Therefore:

$S_{n}=\frac{(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})}{1-\frac{3}{4} }$

$S_{n}=\frac{(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})}{\frac{1}{4} }$

$S_{n}=(4)(235)(1-\frac{3}{4} ^{12})$

$S_{n}=910.22\ ft$

Which of the following values for x and y make the equation 4x + 2y + 3 = 19 true?

Alex_Xolod [135]

The third one is correct so it would be C.

Just substitute X and Y into the question.

21 is 35% of what number

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

21 is 35% of 60

Step-by-step explanation:

35% can be written as 0.35

0.35x = 21 ----- 0.35 times a number is 21

divide both sides by 0.35:

x = 60

GarryVolchara [31]

Julie is correct because LxWxH only applies to 2 dimensional shapes so therefore you need to use x to the power of 3 formula
