\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}

Clare travels at a constant speed, as shown on the double number line
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

1. 36 miles

2. 108 miles

3. 234 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the Distance in miles, time and calculated speed as follows;

Distance (miles)                  Elapsed time (hours)              Speed (miles/hour)

       0                                        0                                          0

       72                                      2                                          36

       144                                     4                                          36

       216                                     6                                          36

Distance = Speed (miles/hour) × Elapsed Time (hour)

Therefore, in

1. 1 hour, she travels

1 × 36  = 36 miles

2. 3 hours she travels

3 hours × 36 miles/hour = 108 miles

3. 6.5 hours she travels

6.5 hours × 36 miles/hour = 234 miles.
