Question

You drop a ball from a height of 0.5 meter. Each curved path has 52% of the height of the previous path.
a. Write a rule for the sequence using centimeters. The initial height is given by the term n = 1.
b. What height will the ball be at the top of the third path?

a. A(n) = 0.5 * (0.52)^n-1; 0.14 cm

b.A(n) = 0.52 * (0.5)^n-1 ; 0.13 cm

c.A(n) = 50 * (52)^n-1 ; 135,200 cm

d.A(n) = 50 * (0.52)^n-1 ; 13.52 cm

Answer 1

its d

Answer 2

A(n)=50(52/100)^n-1
Convert (0.5m=50cm)
n=3
A(3)=50(0.52)^3-1
A(3)=50(0.52)^2
A(3)=50(0.2704)
A(3)=13.52 cm

Answer 3

thank you guys
