Question 981789: .During a free-fall, a skydiver jumps 16 feet, 48 feet, and 80 feet on the
first, second, and third fall, respectively. If he continues to jump at this
rate, how many feet will he have jumped during the tenth fall? Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
J=jump number; d=distance
.
d=16ft+(J-1)(32ft)
.
For J=10:
d=16ft+(10-1)(32ft)
d=16ft+(9)(32ft)
d=16ft+288ft=304ft
