Answer: B. No

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation has the following form:

$y=kx$

Where the constant of variation is "k".

By definition, in direct variation, when the variable "x" changes, tha variable "y" changes in proportion to the variable "x".

As you can observe in the table, when the value of the variable "x" increase, the values of the variable "y" decrease, therefore we can conclude that it is not a direct variation.

Then the answer is the option B.

The loudness, L, measured in decibels (Db), of a sound intensity, I, measured in watts per square meter, is defined as mc024-1.j

Alex Ar [27]

We have the given I = 10^-1 and I₀ = 10^-12.

Simply plugging in the values to the equation, we have:
L = 10log(10^-1/10^-12)
L = 110 Db

The answer is D.

(I used a scientific calculator in solving for L).
