Question 197350:
Could you please help me with this problem?
The intensity (I) of light from a light bulb varies inversely as the square of the distance (d) from the light bulb. Suppose (I) is 250 w/m^2 when the distance is 3m. How much further would it be to a point where the intensity is 160 w/m^2?
Thank you for all your help....

k = I * d^2 ___ k = 250 * 3^2 ___ k = 2250
2250 = 160 * d^2 ___ 225 / 16 = d^2 ___ 3.75 = d
so it would be .75 m further
