An acceptable noise criterion rating for the background noise in a laundry room is 50. For a noise criterion rating of 50, the equation y = 22(0.997)
x-60 + 47 gives the estimated sound pressure level, y, in decibels, as a function of the octave band center frequency , x , in hertz , where x ≥ 60. Which of the following is the best interpretation of 47 in this context?
