You people in the Algebra 1 course for high school, Are you guys ready for the exams next week? I'm definitely not. Anyway, A ball is dropped from a certain height. The function below represents the height f (n), in feet, to which the ball bounces at the nth bounce:

f (n) = 9 (0.7) n

What does the number 0.7 represent?

A: The ball bounces to 30% of its previous height with each bounce.

B: The height at which the ball bounces at the nth bounces is 0.3 feet.

C: The ball bounces to 70% of its previous height with each bounce.

D: The height from which the ball was dropped at the nth bounce is 0.7 feet.

I think that it D

Step-by-step explanation:

C=.07=70%. So I know that it is not C

A = 30% but the question doesn't even have a 3 in it, so therefore it cannot be A.

B = Is basically the same concept as A. There is no. 3 or 3 peroid.

So I say D
