Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(t + 8) (-2) = 12
Distributive property >>> -2t + -16 = 12
Inverse operation >>>> -2t + -16+16 = 12+16
Simplify >>>> -2t = 28
Divide >>>> -2t/-2 = 28/-2
Final answer >>>> t = -14
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
