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

Mark wants to fence 4 rectangular gardens, each with a length of 9 1/4 feet and a width of 4 1/2feet. What is the length of fenc
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

110 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of fencing is four times the perimeter of one garden.

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is  

P = 2l + 2w

The total perimeter for all four rectangles is

P = 4× (2l + 2w) = 8l + 8w

Data:

 l = 9¼ ft

w = 4½ ft

Calculation:

P = 8l + 8w = 8×9¼ + 8×4½ = 72⁸/₄ + 32⁸/₂ =(72 + 2) + (32 + 4) = 74 + 36 = 110 ft

The total length of fencing is 110 ft.

Abby feeds her dog 1 1/2 cups of food each day, and Braxton feeds his dog 4 1/2 cups of food each day. In one week, how many tim
ddd [48]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Abby's dog: 1.5 cups of food
  • Braxton's dog: 4.5 cups of food

Looking at the information we got, we can say that Braxton's dog eats more. Let's put them into ratio form (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog)

  • => (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog) = 4.5:1.5

<u>Now, put them into fractions.</u>

  • => 4.5:1.5 = 4.5/1.5 = 3

We can conclude that Braxton's dog eats 3 times more food.
