When
\( r = 4096 \), the value of
\( p \) is approximately
\( 25.28 \), derived from the inverse proportionality
\( p \) inversely proportional to
\( (4)/(4r) \), given
\( p = 8 \) when
\( r = 1296 \).

Given
\( p \) is inversely proportional to
\( (4)/(4r) \) and when
\( p = 8 \) when
\( r = 1296 \):

Let's find the constant of proportionality:

When
\( p = 8 \) and
\( r = 1296 \):


\( p * (4)/(4r) = k \)


\( 8 * (4)/(4 * 1296) = k \)


\( (32)/(5184) = k \)


\( k = (1)/(162) \)

Now that we have the constant of proportionality
\( k \), we can use it to find the value of
\( p \) when
\( r = 4096 \):

When
\( r = 4096 \):


\( p * (4)/(4r) = (1)/(162) \)


\( p * (4)/(4 * 4096) = (1)/(162) \)


\( p * (1)/(4096) = (1)/(162) \)


\( p = (1)/(162) * 4096 \)


\( p = 25.28 \)

Therefore, when
\( r = 4096 \), the value of
\( p \) is approximately
\( 25.28 \).
