A boy drops a rubber ball from a height of 8 feet above a concrete floor. Each time the ball hits the ground it bounces up 75% of its previous maximum height (it reaches 6 feet on its first bounce, 4.5 feet on the second bounce…). What is the total vertical distance the ball will eventually travel?
