Adecibel is a logarithmic unit that can be used to measure the intensity of a sound. the function y = 10logx gives the intensity of a sound in decibels, where x is the ratio of the intensity of the sound to a reference intensity. the reference intensity is generally set at the threshold of hearing. use the graphing utility to graph the decibel function. a whisper has a sound intensity of 30 decibels. use your graph to you complete the following statement. the sound intensity of a whisper is times the reference intensity.

The sound intensity of a whisper is 333.3 times the reference intensity

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The function gives the intensity of a sound in decibels, where x is the ratio of the intensity of the sound to a reference intensity.

A whisper has a sound intensity of 30 decibels.

To find : Use your graph to help you complete the following statement. The sound intensity of a whisper is times the reference intensity.

Solution :

Graph is attached which shows their intersection at (1000,30).

We can also verify by substituting value.

We have given that a whisper has a sound intensity of 30 decibels.

Therefore, y=30 , Let log base 10

Logarithmic property

The ratio of the intensity of the sound to a reference intensity is 1000 decibels

The sound intensity of a whisper is times the reference intensity is

The sound intensity of a whisper is 333.3 times the reference intensity.

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
