a ball is dropped from a height of 5 feet and bounces to 60% of its previous height on each subsequent bounce. Which statement is true regarding the vertical distance the ball has traveled when it hits the ground for the fourth time?
4 A. One should use ∑(0.6)^n(5) which results in 10.88ft for the vertical distance traveled n=0
3
B. One should use 5+∑2(0.6)^n(5) which results in 16.76ft for the vertical distance
n=0
4
C. One should use 5+∑2(0.6)^n(5) which results in 18.06ft for vertical distance traveled
n=0
4
D. One should use ∑2(0.6)^n(5) which results in 21.76ft for vertical distance traveled
