The intensity of a radio signal from the radio station varies inversely as the square of the distance from the station.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "I = k/d^2
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\" using the following:
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Suppose the intensity is 8000 units at a distance of 2 miles.
\n" ); document.write( "8000 = k/2^2
\n" ); document.write( "k = 32000
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation for this radio station:
\n" ); document.write( "I = 32000/d^2
\n" ); document.write( "======================\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What will the intensity be at a distance of 8 miles?
\n" ); document.write( "I = 32000/8^2
\n" ); document.write( "I = 500
