A ball bounces from a height of 8 feet. The ball bounces to 80% of its previous height with each bounce. How high (to the nearest tenth of a foot) does the ball bounce on the fifth bounce?

2.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

At each point, there is a loss of 20% (since it flies to 80%)

a) 8 - 20% of 8

= 8-1.6 = 6.4

b) 6.4 - 20% of 6.4

= 5.12

c) 5.12 - 20% of 5.12

4.096

d) 4.096 - 20% of 4.096

3.2768

e) 3.2768 - 20% of 3.2768

= 2.62144 feet

i think 1: 2
