When a certain rubber ball is dropped, it rebounds 75 percent as high as the distance it fell. What is the approximate height from which the ball was dropped, if it had traveled a total of 2,146 centimeters vertically by the time it struck the ground for the third time?
A. 400 cm
B. 500 cm
C. 600 cm
D. 700 cm
E. 800 cm
The way I read this was that it traveled 2146cm only by adding up the vertical distance traveled.... So I was sitting here and nothing was adding up. Not sure how I am supposed to know it's talking about the distance going up and down when it literally says "traveled a total of 2146 centimeters vertically...."
Anyone else think this?
Traveled vertically does not necessarily imply movement only in an upward direction. The term encompasses both upward and downward movements, as dropping down is also a vertical movement.
