Sound waves can be ranked by their intensity, I, given in the formula below, where r is the distance from the source of a sound

with a power output of P.
P=4πIr²

Solve the formula for the distance from the source, r.

A: r=\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{\frac{\pi I}{P} }

B: r=\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{\frac{P}{\pi I} }

C: r=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{\pi I}{P} }

D: r=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{P}{\pi I} }

Answer:

D: r=1/2 sqrt(P/πI)

Step-by-step explanation:

P=4πIr²

We want to solve the equation for r

First divide each side of the equation by 4πI

P/4πI =4πIr²/4πI

P/4πI =r²

Then we need to take the square root of each side.  Normally we would take the ± square root, but distance cannot be negative.

sqrt(P/4πI)  = sqrt(r²)

sqrt(P/4πI)  = r

Notice that there is a 4 in the denominator.  sqrt(4) = 2

sqrt(P/πI)* 1/sqrt(4)  = r

sqrt(P/πI)* 1/2  = r

1/2 sqrt(P/πI) = r

R example: 6 1/2 = 13/2 = 6.5

For the first example, six and a half is equal to thirteen halves, which is then equal to six point five. To do this, the rule to turn a mix number into a fraction is by multiplying the 2 with the 6 and then add the answer to 1, which gives 13/2 (Remember to always give the same denominator). Finally, thirteenth halves is equal to six point five (because when you divide 13 by 2, you get 6 and one left over. To continue dividing, add a 0 , and so 10 goes into 2 is five. so the decimal is 6.5
