According to Wikipedia, the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) requires that a basketball bounce to a height of 1300 mm when dropped from a height of 1800 mm.
Suppose you drop a basketball and the ratio of each rebound height to the previous rebound height is 1300:1800. Let $h$ be the function that assigns to $n$ the rebound height of the ball (in mm) on the $n^{\rm th}$ bounce. Complete the chart below, rounding to the nearest mm.
| $n$ | $h(n)$ |
|-----|--------|
|  0  |  1800  |
|  1  |        |
|  2  |        |
|  3  |        |
Write an expression for $h(n)$.
Solve an equation to determine on which bounce the basketball will first have a height of less than 100 mm.
