Question

help!

Answer 1

after 1st bounce, height = 36(.7) = 36(.7)^1
after 2 bounces, height = [36(.7)](.7) = 36(.7)^2
..
after 6 bounces, height = ...... = ......

You do it, I will not give you the answer.

Answer 2

so would it be [36(.7)](.7)=36(.7)^6 ?

Answer 3

bounce = 7/10 of previous Hight
by a/1-r
36/1-7/10
36*10/3
120 m
