Question

Mateo is doing an experiment for Physics class. He drops a bouncy ball off a balcony from a height of 12 meters. The ball's next bounce is always 75% of the height of the previous bounce. Let nbounce number. Before the ball is dropped, n = 0 , because the ball has not yet bounced. Which explicit formula represents the height of the ball after n bounces? n =

Answer 1

Hint:

\(\ 12\ (\frac{3}{4})^n\)
