Ben’s last jump was 3.75 metres long.
3.75 = f + (f/2)
f = Bens 1st jump
You need to find the value of ‘f’.
So
3.75 / 3 = 1.25
f1.5 / 3 = f/2
f/2 x 2 = f
1.25 x 2 = 2.5
f = 2.5
Ben’s first jump was 2.5 metres
Mia’s last jump was 1.20 metres high.
1.20 = f + (f/2)
f = Mia’s first jump
You need to find the value of ‘f’.
So
1.20 / 3 = 0.40
f1.5 / 3 = f/2
f/2 x 2 = f
0.40 x 2 = 0.80
f = 0.80
Mia’s first jump was 0.80 metres high.
