You drop a ball from a height of 10ft. each bounce the ball gains only 90% of its height back. how high does the ball bounce on its 6th bounce? starting amount: decay rate: equation:

6th bounce: 40%

Starting amount: 100%

Decay rate: 10%

Equation: 100% - 10% - 10% - 10% - 10% - 10% - 10% =

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 10% - 10% - 10% - 10% - 10% - 10% = 40%. 40% is the answer.

you need a common difference between consecutive terms to be constant, like 1,2,3,4 or 2,4,6,8, or 1,3,6,9
