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

When you divide a whole number by fraction with a numerator of one explain how you can find the quotient
MariettaO [177]
In this item, we are asked for the methodology to arriving the answer when the whole number is divided by a fraction with 1 as a numerator. If example we have the whole number as 4 and the fraction with 1 as numerator is 1/2, the division would become, 4/(1/2). We multiply the whole number by the reciprocal of the given fraction which then becomes, 4(2/1). The final answer would be 12.

A display case for the artifact is in the shape of a cube. Each side of the display case is three times longer than the width ww
Katena32 [7]
A cube is a 3d object bounded by  6 square faces. 

Each side of the display case is 3 times longer than the width of the artifact.

width of the artifact = w
side of the cube = 3w

<span>a. Write an expression for the volume of the case.
 volume of a cube is the measure of its side raised to the power of 3.

Volume = (3w)</span>³

<span>Volume = 27w</span>³<span>

A business bought 500 lamps for $10,000. They want to mark them up 25%. What is the retail price of each lamp?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

$25 a lamp

Step-by-step explanation:

First divide $10,000  by 500 lamps to find how much one of them cost

That is $20 a lamp so then multiply .25 *20 or 1/4 *20

you get 5 than add 20 +5=25
