Rohan dropped a lacrosse ball from a building.



After each bounce, the height of the ball is measured and recorded in the table.

Bounce Number Height (cm) After Bounce
1 10,240
2 2,560
3 640
4 160
Write an explicit and recursive formula to represent the sequence of the height of the ball after each bounce.

What is the height of the ball after bounce 8? Explain your answer by using one of the formulas you created.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The nth bounce a sub n is 0.25 (a sub n-1)

0.625 cm

Answer 2

  Recursive formula of the sequence[tex]T_n=10240(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}[/tex]

  Explicit formula of the sequence → [tex]T_1=10240, \\T_{n+1}=T_n(0.25)[/tex]

  Height of the ball after 8th bounce will be 0.625 cm.

Geometric sequence and its explicit and recursive formula,If a sequence is in the form of [tex]ar,ar,ar^2,ar^3.....[/tex] n terms,

        Sequence will be the geometric sequence and the explicit formula

        of the sequence will be,

        [tex]T_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

        Here, [tex]a=[/tex] First term

        [tex]r=[/tex] Common ratio

        [tex]n=[/tex] Number of terms

Similarly, recursive formula will be,

        [tex]a=[/tex] First term

        [tex]T_{n+1}=T_n(r)[/tex]

From the table attached,

There is common ratio between the successive term and previous term under the column (height after the bounce) is,

[tex]\frac{T_2}{T_1}=\frac{2560}{10240}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{T_3}{T_2}=\frac{640}{2560}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, height of the ball after each bounce will represent a geometric sequence.

Explicit formula of a geometric sequence will be given by the expression,

[tex]T_n=10240(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}[/tex]

Recursive formula for the sequence will be,

[tex]T_1=10240[/tex]

[tex]T_{n+1}=T_n(\frac{1}{4})[/tex]

By using recursive formula,

Height of the ball after 8th bounce,

[tex]T_8=10240(\frac{1}{4})^{8-1}[/tex]

    [tex]=10240(0.25)7[/tex]

    [tex]=0.625[/tex] cm

      Therefore, explicit formula to represent the height of the ball will be [tex]T_n=10240(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}[/tex]recursive formula will be, [tex]T_1=10240\\T_{n+1}=T_n(0.25)[/tex]

       And height of the ball after 8th bounce will be 0.625 cm.

Answers

Answer:

Part A

1. After 4 weeks of work, Jeremy has saved 300

2. Jeremy worked 8 weeks in order to save $600

3. For every one week of work, Jeremy saved 75 dollars

4. If Jeremy works 15 weeks, then he can expect to save 1,125 dollars

Part B

1. Saeed orders 15 meals and his total cost of delivery is $24

2. Saeed paid $32 to have 20 meals delivered

3. For every meal delivered, Saeed is charged $1.6

4. If Saeed pays $19.20 in delivery fees then he ordered 12 meals

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given graph gives the proportional relationship between total amount saved and the number of weeks worked

1. Reading from the graph, at the point where the vertical line from point 4 touches the line of the graph, an horizontal line to the vertical y-axis touches the y-axis at 300

Therefore;

After 4 weeks of work, Jeremy has saved 300

2. The point where an horizontal line from point 600 on the vertical y-axis touches the line of the graph, a vertical line drawn to the horizontal, x-axis touches the x-axis at 8

Therefore;

Jeremy worked 8 weeks in order to save $600.

3. The rate of change of the amount saved to the number of weeks worked, 'm', for the given proportional relationship (straight line relationship, passing through the origin) is given as follows;

Rate of change, m = Constant = y/x

∴ Rate of change of the amount saved to the number of weeks worked = (300-0)/(4 weeks- 0 week) = 75/week

Therefore;

For every one week of work, Jeremy saved 75 dollars

4. The amount Jeremy would have saved in 15 weeks, 'A', is given as follows;

A = m × n

Where;

m = The rate of change of the amount saved to the number of weeks worked = 75/week

n = The number of weeks worked

∴ A = 75/week × 15 = $1,125

Therefore;

If Jeremy works 15 weeks, then he can expect to save 1,125 dollars

Part B

From the graph, we have;

1. From the graph there is a proportional relationship between the total cost of delivery and the number of meals

At the point a vertical line drawn to the line of the graph from 15 on the horizontal axis (number of meals), a horizontal line drawn to the vertical y-axis touches the y-axis at 24

Therefore;

1. Saeed orders 15 meals and his total cost of delivery is $24

2. From the point where the horizontal line from 32 on the vertical axis touches the linear graph of the relationship between the total cost of delivery and the number of meals, a vertical line drawn down to the horizonal axis touches the horizontal x-axis at 20

Therefore;

Saeed paid $32 to have 20 meals delivered

3. The rate of change of the total cost of delivery to the number of meals, 'm', is given as follows;

m = y/x (for proportional relationships)

Taking any corresponding 'x' and y-values

m = 16/10 = 32/20 = 24/15 = 1.6 Dollars/meal

Therefore;

For every meal delivered, Saeed is charged $1.6

4. From m = y/x = 1.6

When y = $19.20

x = y/m = $19.20/($1.6/meal) = 12 meals

Therefore;

If Saeed pays $19.20 in delivery fees then he ordered 12 meals.

Answers

Answer:2 yds and h

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the new cylinder will be equal to 40.96 cubic centimeters.

What is the volume of a cylinder?

The amount of space inside a cylinder is its volume. You can find it by dividing the base area by the height.

The formula to calculate the volume of the cylinder is given below:-

V = πr²h

Given that volume of a cylinder is 80 cubic centimeters. The diameter and height of the cylinder is multiplied by 4/5. The new volume will be:-

Vi= πr²h = 80 cubic centimeters.

The new volume will be calculated as:-

Vn= π (4/5r)²(4/5)h

Vn = (64 / 125 )  πr²h

Vn = (64 / 125 ) x Vi

Vn = (64 / 125 ) x 80

Vn = 40.96 cubic centimeters.

Therefore, the volume of the new cylinder will be equal to 40.96 cubic centimeters.

find An Equation Of The Line Containg(3,-4) and Having slope -2.If This Line Contain The Points (a,8) and (5,b) find a and b​

Answers

Answer:

equation: y=-2x+2

a=-3

b=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find the equation of the line containing the point (3,-4) and has the slope (m) of -2

slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

we can plug what we know into the equation:

y=-2x+b

we need to find b though

since the point will pass through the point (3,-4) we can subsitute it into the equation to find b

-4=-2(3)+b

-4=-6+b

2=b

the y intercept is 2

so the equation is y=-2x+2

the line also contains the points (a,8) and (5,b)

first, let's find a

a is the x value of the point

we know the value of y (8)

substitute y as 8 and solve for x

8=-2x+2

subtract

6=-2x

-3=x=a

so a is -3

now find b

b is the y value of the point

we know the x value (5)

substitute x as 5 and solve for y

y=-2(5)+2

y=-10+2

y=-8=b

so b is -8

hope this helps!

"sports discount" has uniforms for 68$. They are offering a 20% discount on each uniform, and a 7 percent sales tax will be applied to the discount price. What would be the final cost for eight uniforms after the discount and sales tax

Answers

Answer:

58.208 times 8 equals 465.664 rounded down to 465.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

$465.66

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we are buying 8 uniforms. Therefore, the total price on a normal day would be 8x68 = $544

However, on this day, there is a 20% discount. In other words, we are only paying 80% of the original price as percentages are always out of 100.

The price after the sports discount will be 544x0.8 = $435.2

On top of this, we have to pay a sales tax of 7 percent. The 7 percent is an additional cost to the discounted price of 435.2, hence we add 0.07 (7 percent in decimals) onto 1 (100% in decimals).

This gives us 435.2 x ( 1 + 0.07 )  = 465.664.

Because currency is to 2 decimal points (1 cent), the final answer will be 465.66, or 465 dollars and 66 cents.
