Look at the chart below:
Bounce: 0 1 2 3 4
Height: 100 50 25 13 6
How high do you think the ball will bounce on the 5th bounce? Explain.
Please Help!!
Thank You!

I answered your question in one of your later posts.
To determine how high the ball will bounce on the 5th bounce, we can analyze the pattern in the given chart.
Looking at the chart, we can observe that with each bounce, the height of the ball is decreasing. The height of each bounce seems to be roughly half of the height of the previous bounce. For example, the first bounce is at a height of 100, the second bounce is at a height of 50, the third bounce is at a height of 25, and so on.
Based on this observed pattern, we can predict that the ball will bounce approximately half the height of the previous bounce on the 5th bounce. If we follow this pattern, the height of the 5th bounce would be approximately 6/2 = 3.
So, it is expected that the ball will bounce at a height of around 3 on the 5th bounce, according to the given information and the observed pattern in the chart.
