Algebra ->  Sequences-and-series -> SOLUTION: What distance will a golf ball travel if it is dropped from a height of 72 m, and if, after each fall, it rebounds 2/3 of the distance it fell?      Log On

72 m plus doubled sum of the INFINITE geometric progression with the first term of  = 48 meters and the common ratio of  


    72 +   meters.


You do the rest.
