You drop a rubber ball off the roof of a 50 meter high building onto a paved parking lot. it bounces back up with every bounce, but not quite all the way back up to you. after the first bounce it bounces back only 80 percent of the distance it was dropped from. the pattern continues, meaning after every bounce it comes up to just 80 percent of the previous maximum height. so if before the first bounce the height is 50 meters, what height does the ball reach after the fifth bounce? round your answer to one decimal place and chose the correct response from the choices below:

The means and mean absolute deviations of the individual times of members on two 4x400-meter relay track teams are shown in the table below. means and mean absolute deviations of individual times of members of 4x400-meter relay track teams team a team b mean 59.32 s 59.1 s mean absolute deviation 1.5 s 245 what percent of team b's mean absolute deviation is the difference in the means? 9% 15% 25% 65%

Scenario: susan wants to make 2 square flags to sell at a crafts fair. the fabric she wants to buy is 3 meters wide. she doesn't want any fabric left over. what's the least amount of fabric she should buy? question: which equation will susan solve her problem? note: let x represent the length of 1 side of the flag. options: 1) 2x^2 = 4x 2) 8 +2x = 2(4x) 3) 2 * 2 = 4 * 2 4) 4x^2 -2x = 0
