Guided Practice You drop a handball from a height of 100 centimeters. Each curved path has 64% of the height of the previous path.

Write a rule for the sequence using centimeters. The initial height is when n = 1.

What height will the ball reach at the top of the sixth path?

A.
an=100 · (0.64)n−1a subscript n baseline equals 100 times left parenthesis 0.64 right parenthesis superscript n minus 1 baseline; about 10.74 cm

B.
an=0.64 · (100)n−1a subscript n baseline equals 0.64 times left parenthesis 100 right parenthesis superscript n minus 1 baseline; about 0.11 cm

C.
an=1 · (0.64)n−1a subscript n baseline equals 1 times left parenthesis 0.64 right parenthesis superscript n minus 1 baseline; 6,400,000,000 cm
