Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables are inversely proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding decrease in the other variable. Also, a decrease in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable.

Given that loudness, L varies inversely with the square of the distance, d², if we introduce a constant of proportionality, k, the expression becomes

L = k/d²

If L = 60 when d = 8, then

60 = k/8² = k/64

k = 60 × 64 = 3840

Therefore, the inverse variation equation is

L = 3840/d²

When d = 41, then

L = 3840/41²

L = 2.28 decibels

Answer:

The jetski is 2.28 dB loud when the person is 41 feet away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Loudness (L) ∝ 1 / Distance² (d²)

Introduce a constant 'K'

L = K (1/d²)

L = K/d²

K = Ld²

Find the K from a previously known information: If a person 8 feet from a jetski hears 60 decibels loud

∴ d = 8 ft , L = 60 db

K = 60(8²) = <em>3840</em>

How loud is the jetski when the person is 41 feet away?

Distance is now 41 ft

since: L = K/d²

∴ L = 3840 / 41²

L = 3840 / 1681

L = 2.28 db

the function p(t)p(t)p, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis models the average high temperature, in degrees celsius, of paity
Mnenie [13.5K]

The solution set for the last equation represents the set of all days when the towns have the same average high temperature.

  • The hotness of matter or radiation is expressed by the physical quantity known as temperature. The average air temperature for a specific time period, often a day, a month, or a year, as measured by a thermometer that has been properly exposed.
  • P(t) is the average high temperature, in degrees Celsius, of Paityn's town on t days.

       \begin{aligned} P(t)&=22.5+7.5\cos\left(\dfrac{2\pi (t-28)}{365}\right)\\\\  \end{aligned}

  • V(t) is the average high temperature, in degrees Celsius, of Vince's town on t days.

        \\ V(t)&=30.5+1.5\cos\left(\dfrac{2\pi (t-90)}{365}\right)

  • So, P(t) = V(t) represents the set of all the days when both towns have the same average high temperature.
