The loudness of a sound of intensity x, measured in watts per square meter, is defined as L(x) = log (), where xo = 10-3.At a recent Phish rock concert, sound intensity reached a level of 0.50 watt per square meter. To the nearest whole number, calculate the loudness of this sound in decibels.

Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).
