Delay, distance, and intensity loss can be plotted on one common graph
Evidence
Because there is a direct correspondence between delay, distance from the source, and the reduction in intensity due to the inverse square law, we can plot all this on a common graph (see Figure 6.6), which shows the maximum bounds of the intensity level of reflections, provided there are no focusing effects. — David Howard, Jamie Angus, coustics and Psychoacoustics, 1756

Categorization
- DEFINE: Establishes the foundational correspondence between three measurable acoustical quantities that underpins much of auditorium design.
- corroborated: 2 independent passages support this claim — David Howard, Jamie Angus, coustics and Psychoacoustics, 1756; David M. Howard, Jamie Angus, Acoustics and Psychoacoustics, 1717
