ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION Due Date Sunday, July 10, 2016 11:59 PM Points Possible 100 person writing on a piece of paperBased on what you learned from the problem you solved with your group, you will submit a written report describing your solution to a similar problem, below. The report is due on the last day of the module (Sunday at 11:59pm). The problem you must solve is: How many times louder is a 60 dB sound than a 20 dB sound? How many times more energy is released by a magnitude 6 earthquake than by a magnitude 2 earthquake? When you are 2 meters away from the speakers at a concert, the sound level is 130 db. How far away should you sit to reduce the level to 110 dB? To get full credit for this write-up, you should: Answer all parts of the problem. Show your justification for every step in your solution. Use clear, mathematically accurate language. Label all numbers with the units they represent (e.g., 0.3048 ft/meter). Clearly state your conclusions using complete English sentences (for example, “Jill needs to add 43 gallons of water to her pool”). You may use ideas from the discussion board, but you are expected to write your solution using your own words to explain your reasoning. The report should be no more than 3 pages. Ideally, your solution will be typed in MS Word, although you may hand-write mathematical expressions (in dark pen) if need be, and then scan your paper, check that all hand-written portions are legible, and upload it. Compose your work using a word processor (or other software as appropriate) and save it frequently to your computer. Be sure to check your work and correct any spelling or grammatical errors before you upload it. When you are ready to submit your work, click "Browse My Computer" and find your file. Once you have located your file, click "Open" and, if successful, the file name will appear under the Attached files heading. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Submit." Before you submit this assignment to the dropbox below, be sure to upload a copy to the "Final" dropbox for this assignment on Turnitin.com. Evaluation Criteria The problem write-ups will comprise 25% of your course grade and will be evaluated using the SLA Math Problem Write Up Rubric [377.5 KB PDF file]. Image Citation: Photos.com
