\qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation}\\\\
\textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad  y=\cfrac{k}{x}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
k=constant\ of\\
variation
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \begin{array}{llll}
\textit{Sound intensity is inversely proportional}\\
\textit{to the square of the distance from the source}
\end{array}\implies s=\cfrac{k}{d^2}
\\\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
s=30\\
d=8
\end{cases}\implies 30=\cfrac{k}{8^2}\implies 8^2\cdot 30=k
\\\\\\
\boxed{1920=k}\qquad thus\qquad s=\cfrac{1920}{d^2}
\\\\\\
\textit{what's "s" when d = 4?}\qquad s=\cfrac{1920}{4^2}
