7c) Carlos has 2500 and loses 1/3 of it every month due to bad habits. Write an equation where m represents the amount of months since since Carlos had $2500 and r represents the remaining amount.

r = 2500(2/3)m

6b) What does h(-3) mean in this situation. Does it make sense? Why or why not? 

The height of the ball 3 bounces before the initial height at which it was dropped. It does not make sense because the drop height is the highest point. 

300

6)What does 4/5 represent in the equation?

The height of the ball decreases by 1/5 after each bounce. 

Therefore the height is 4/5 of it's height from the bounce prior.
