Question

Nina is bouncing on a trampoline her fourth bounce is 6ft high each bounce afterwards is two thirds as high as the bounce before it how high will her sixth bounce on the trampoline be

Answer 1

8/3ft

Explanation:

To find how high she would bounce, we need to first understand that her height of each jump would be multiplied by 2/3 given that each bounce afterwards is two thirds as high as the bounce before.

We can then set the equation:

6 x 2/3 x 2/3

=6 x (2/3)^2

=8/3

Therefore the answer is 8/3 ft.
