Adam drops a ball from a height of 12 feet. Each bounce is 50% as high as the previous bounce. What is the total vertical distance, in feet, the ball has traveled when it hits the ground for the 4th time?

Step-by-step explanation:

1 st hit=12 ft

2nd hit=2*6=12 ft

3rd hit=2*3=6 ft

4th hit=2*1.5=3 ft

distance=12+12+6+3=33 ft

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
