A ball bounces to a height of 6.7 feet on the first bounce. Each subsequent bounce reaches a height that is 81% of the previous bounce. What is the height, in feet, of the sixth bounce

Answers

Answer 1

After solving, the height in feet of the sixth bounce is 1.892 feet.

In the given question, we ave to find the height, in feet, of the sixth bounce.

From the given question,

Height on the first bounce = 6.7

Subsequent bounce reaches a height of the previous bounce = 81%

Suppose the height is h.

So according to the question:

h(6) = height on the first bounce*(subsequent bounce reaches a height of the previous bounce)^6

h(6) = 6.7*(81%)^6

h(6) = 1.892 feet

So the height of sixth bounce is 1.892 feet.

A chef that manages two restaurants buys seven bags of rice and six bags of flour.
Restaurant A receives four bags of rice and two bags of flour for a total cost of
$78. Restaurant B receives three bags of rice and four bags of flour for a total
cost of $71.50. What is the cost of each bag of rice and each bag of flour?

Answers

Answer:

   - A bag of rice is $16.9

   - A bag of flour is $5.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let R and F stand for the price of a bag of Rice and Flour, respectively.

We can use the information provided to set an equation that will predict the total cost for that restaurant, given the quantities of rice and flour received (Restaurants A and B)

A) 4R + 2F = 78   [4 bags of rice and 2 bags of flour, when multiplied by the prices per bag, R and F, will result in a total cost of $78.

B)  3R + 4F = 71.5  [Now it is 3 bags of rice and 4 of flour, for a total cost of $71.50

We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns.  We can use substitution to find the answers.  Take one of the equations and reorganize it to isolate one of the variables (R or F).  We'll take the equation for A and isolate F

---

A) 4R + 2F = 78

     2F = 78-4R      [subtract 4R from both sides]

       F = 39-2R      [divide both sides by 2]

We've isolated F, and we can use this definition of F in the second equation:

===

B)  3R + 4F = 71.5

3R + 4(39 - 2R) = 71.5  [Use the definition of F derived above.  In this manner, we have legally eliminated one of the two variables.  (Sneaky, effective, and fun)]

3R + 156 - 8R = 71.5   [Multiply, combine like terms, and simplify]

-5R = -84.5                  [Isolate R]

R = $16.9                      A bag of rice costs $16.9

Now use the price of rice (R=$16.9) in one of the equations.  Since the rearranged equation we used above is already conveniently written for F, we'll use it:

F = 39 - 2R

F = 39 - 2(16.9)

F = 39 - 33.8

F = $5.20                     A bag of flour costs $5.20

===

CHECK:

Do these two prices satisfy both equations we first formulated?

Restaurant A:  4R + 2F = 78?

                        4(16.9) + 2(5.20) = 78  YES

Restaurant B:  3R + 4F = 71.5?

                        3(16.9) + 4(5.20) = 71.5  YES

These are the correct answers.
