You are responsible to provide tennis balls for a tournament. You know that a ball bounces like new when it is dropped and it bounces 82% of the previous height. Because of budget restriction for the tournament you need to test some used balls to make sure they bounce like new tennis balls. You drop a ball and it bounces multiple times; each bounce reaches 82% the height of the previous height. a. Is this sequence geometric or arithmetic

arithmetic

Step-by-step explanation:

because it bounced double

use the power rule  

( a b ) n = a n b n

to distribute the exponent.

apply the product rule to  

3 x 2 y 3 . ( 3 x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2

apply the product rule to  

3 x 2 . 3 2 ( x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2

raise  

3

to the power of  

2 . 9 ( x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2 multiply the exponents in   ( x 2 ) 2

.

apply the power rule and multiply exponents,  

( a m ) n = a m n . 9 x 2 ⋅ 2 ( y 3 ) 2

multiply  

2   by   2 . 9 x 4 ( y 3 ) 2

multiply the exponents in  

( y 3 ) 2 .

apply the power rule and multiply exponents,  

( a m ) n = a m n . 9 x 4 y 3

⋅

2

multiply  

3   by   2 . 9 x 4 y 6
