Answer

Data collected during experiments or investigations are a great way to look for patterns. In this experiment, there is a bounce (motion) that is measured in inches. Using the trends in the table, we can predict what the next measurement will be. The ball decreases it's bounce by five inches each time, so we can predict that the final bounce will be five inches.
