(39 points plz )find the sum of a finite geometric series. a ball is dropped from a height of 10 meters. each time it bounces, it reaches 50 percent of its previous height. the total vertical distance the ball has traveled when it hits the ground the fifth time is

So we need to find the sum of the first 5 terms.

You have told me that the first term is 10 meters, and that r = 0.5 per term.

With this knowledge, we can use the formula s_n=a₁((1-r^n)/(1-r)).

Plugging in the terms that we know...

s₅=10((1-0.5⁵)/(1-0.5))

s₅=10(0.96875/0.5)

s₅=10(1.9375)

s₅=19.375

With s₅, we can determine that the ball has traveled a total of 19.375 meters after 5 bounces.

javeir earned 56 dollors more than kyle so kyle and javier had 14w but javier made 56 dollors more so 14w plus 56 equals 70w so kyle has 14w

step-by-step explanation: hope i plz give me brainliest with the points so this is not constant cause it says last week so its clearly not every week

what do u need to know
