X would be 90° ... every x is 90°
The sound intensity of rustling leaves, y = 20 decibels
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
y = 10logx
The sound intensity of rustling leaves is 100 times the reference intensity.
x = ratio of intensity of sound to reference to intensity
x = 100:1 or x = 100
y = 10 log(100) = 10 * 2 = 20 decibels
y = 20 decibels
First you need to get x on one side of the equation and to do that subtract 2a from both sides.
28 + 2a = 5a + 7
-2a -2a
28=3a+7
Then we need to get a alone by subtracting 7 on both sides.
28=3a+7
-7 -7
21=3a
Finally divide each side by 3 and you should get a = 7. Hope this helps!
