Answer:

The noise was reduced by 5.7884 decibels

Explanation:

Using the percentage-decibel table, the 95% decibel level y obtained by interpolation

Percentage Decibel

75 4.86

95 y

100 6.0205

95-75/100-75 = y-4.86/6.0205-4.86

0.8 = y-4.86/1.1605

y-4.86 = 0.8×1.1605

y - 4.86 = 0.9284

y = 4.86+0.9284 = 5.7884 decibels

When the influence of the situation is _______, the consequent behavior is more likely to be a result of _______.
xenn [34]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following?

When the influence of the situation is _______, the consequent behavior is more likely to be a result of _______.

Select one:

a. weak; individual personalities

b. weak; external circumstances

c. strong; internal forces

d. strong; dispositions

Answer:

The correct option is letter A. When the influence of the situation is weak, the consequent behavior is more likely to be a result of individual personalities.

Explanation:

Since behavior is a product of a situation combined with the person, it is fair to think that the result may be accounted for differently according to how strong each element is. Thus, if a situation and the "sub-elements" it includes - such as the presence of others, cultural and social influences, and so on - are weak, it is only logic to assume that the element "person" will be predominant. The result behavior is, therefore, more likely to be a consequence of that individual's personality.

klemol [59]

Answer:

increase; decrease  

Explanation:

          A temperate region have moderate and mild climate. The temperature is neither to high nor too low. It receives moderate rainfall yearly and there is supply of water. Thus a river flowing through the temperate region will increase its discharge as there is availability of water.

           A arid region has dry weather. It has hot climatic conditions. Very less rainfall occurs in arid regions. Thus a river flowing in an arid area dries up and thus it have less  discharge flowing downstream.
