An equation for loudness L in decibels is given by L= 10LogR where R is the sound’s relative intensity. An air-raid siren can re

ach 150 decibels and jet engine noise can reach 120 decibels. How many times greater is the relative intensity of the air-raid siren than that of the jet engine noise?

We are asked to find ratio of two relative intensities. Let's start by rearranging formula for R:
L=10logR \\ logR= \frac{L}{10}   \\ applying formula  \\log_{a}b=c =\ \textgreater \ b= a^{c}\\R= 10^{\frac{L}{10}}

For air-raid siren we have:
R_{1}= 10^{\frac{150}{10}} =10^{15}
For jet engine noise we have:
R_{2}= 10^{\frac{120}{10}} =10^{12}

To find out <span>many times greater is the relative intensity of the air-raid siren than that of the jet engine noise we need to divide these two numbers:
</span>tex] \frac{R_{1}}{R_{2}} = \frac{10^{15}}{10^{12}} =10^{3}=1000[/tex]

Let I (x) be the statement "x has an Internet connection" and C(x, y) be the statement "x and y have chatted over the Internet,"
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L(x) means that Student X has an internet connection

C(x,y) means that students X and Y have chatted over the internet

The domain for variables X and Y comprise all students in your class. We now use quantifiers or algebraic functions to express each of the statements:

(A) Jerry does not have an internet connection

L(x) = 0

Where X represents Jerry

(B) Rachel has not chatted over the internet with Chelsea

C(x,y) = 0

Where X and Y represent Rachel and Chelsea

(C) Jan and Sharon have never chatted over the internet

L(x) + L(y) = 0

Where X and Y represent Jan and Sharon. If they have NEVER chatted over (the question didn't say they have never "with each other", it says they have never chatted at all) the internet, then they've probably never had an internet connection!

(D) No one in the class has chatted with Bob

Let Y represent Bob and X1, X2, ..., Xn represent everyone else in the class.

The value of Y is not significant here (because it is raised to the power of zero and that makes it equal to 1 and when 1 is multiplied by any X value, the X value or student remains the same) but we have to put it, to represent Bob.

The quantifier here is C (X1Y°, X2Y°, X3Y°, ..., XnY°)

Which expression is equivalent to -9x^-1y^-1 / -15x^5 y^-3 Assume x = 0 y = 0
jenyasd209 [6]
For this case we have the following expression:
   -9x ^ -1y ^ -1 / -15x ^ 5 y ^ -3
 For power properties we have:
   -9x ^ (- 1-5) y ^ (- 1 - (- 3)) / - 15
 Rewriting we have:
   9x ^ (- 6) y ^ (- 1 + 3) / 15
   3x ^ (- 6) y ^ (2) / 5
   3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6
 Answer:
 
  3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6Note: answer is not between the options. Rewrite the expression again, or the options.
