Bradley dropped a ball from a roof 16feet high. each time the ball hits the ground it bounces 3/5 the previous height. find the height ball will bounce after hitting the ground the fourth time

2.0736 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Bounce 1: 16*3/5=9.6

Bounce 2: 9.6*3/5=5.76

Bounce 3: 5.76*3/5=3.456

Bounce 4: 3.456*3/5=2.0736

The ball will bounce to 2.07 feet after 4th drop.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bradley dropped a ball from a roof 16 feet high. So, its the initial height.

Each time the ball hits the ground it bounces 3/5 the previous height.

Means after 1st drop, the ball will again rise to feet.

Similarly after 2nd drop, it will bounce to  

After 3rd drop, it will bounce to feet

After 4th drop, it will bounce to feet

Hence, the ball will bounce to 2.07 feet after 4th drop.

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.

m∠a is 90°

m∠b is 40°
