Answer:

Q = 83n²/144

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume, Q, of a sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance n, in meters, from the source of the sound

This means that

Q ∝ n² where K is the constant of proportionality in Decibels/meters²

Q = Kn²

if a sound is heard at 83 decibels at a distance of 12 meters from its source, then

83 = K(12²)

K = 83/144 (in Decibels/meters²)

Hence

Q = 83n²/144

You put $800 in an account that earns 4% simple interest. Find the total amount in your account after each year for 3 years. (Pl
alexandr402 [8]
To get 4% of 800 you times 800 by 4 and divide it by 100. Once you have that amount you add it to 800 to find the amount you will have in your bank the first year. To get the next year's amount you then get 4% of 832(because after the first year you have more than $800) and then add the 4% to 832, that is the answer for the second year. To find the third year's amount you get 4% of the new amount (last year's total) and add it to last year's total, that is your total for the third year. So the first year will be: (800x4÷100)+800 =32+800 =832 The second year will be: 832+(832x4÷100) =832+33.28 =865.28 The third year will be: (865.28×4÷100)+865.28 =34.61(rounded off)+865.28 =899.89

Solve for x. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
babymother [125]

Using the law of cosine:

Cosine(angle) = Adjacent leg / Hypotenuse

You are given the angle, and the adjacent leg and need to solve for X, which is the hypotenuse.

Using the formula above you have:

Cosine(58) = 17 / x

Solve for x by dividing 17 by cos(58)

x = 17 / cos(58)

x = 32.08
