The value of x when the richter scale rating scale is 8.4 is 251188643.151

<h3>What is a richter scale?</h3>

A richter scale is a numerical scale that is used for expressing the magnitude of an earthquake in a geographical area

<h3>How the richter scale works?</h3>

The richter scale takes the amplitude of the earthquake's largest seismic as an input and calculate (and display) the magnitude of an earthquake in the geographical area using a logarithmic function

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The formula of a richter scale is expressed as:

log(x) = n

Where n represents the scale rating of the scale

In this case, n = 8.4.

So, we have:

log(x) = 8.4

Express as an exponent

x = 10^8.4

Evaluate the exponent

x = 251188643.151

Hence, the value of x when the richter scale rating scale is 8.4 is 251188643.151

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Determine the axis of symmetry</u>

The axis of symmetry is middle of the parabola.  In this equation we see that at x = -1 we have the vertex and also the middle of the parabola.  So our axis of symmetry is x = -1.

<u>Step 2:  Determine the vertex</u>

The vertex is the minimum or maximum of a parabola and is bent in a crest form.  In this example the vertex is at (-1, -3) because we are using the tip of the graph.

<u>Step 3:  Determine the y-intercept</u>

The y-intercept is where the graph intersects with the y-axis.  In this example we intersect the y-axis at -4 so that means that our point would be (0, -4) meaning that we intersect x = 0 at -4.

<u>Step 4:  Determine if the vertex is a min or max</u>

Looking at the graph we can see that the rest of the red line is beneath the vertex point which means that the vertex is a max.

<u>Step 5:  Determine the domain</u>

The domain is the x-values that we are going to be using and we know that we are reaching toward positive and negative inifity which means that we are using all real numbers.

<u>Step 6:  Determine the range</u>

The range is the y axis and what y values we are able to reach using the graph.  In this example we can see that all y-values above -3 are not being used therefore the range is y \leq -3

Let f(x)= 7-2x Find a. f(4) b. f(h) c. f(4) + f(h) d. f(3+h)
anyanavicka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) f(4) = 7-2(4)

= -1

b) f(h) = 7-2(h)

= 7-2h

c) f(4) + f(h) = -1 +(7-2h)

= 6-2h

h = 3

d) f(3+h) = 7-2(3+h)

= 7-6-2h

= -1-2h

2h= -1

h = -1/2

p/s = if the real answer is different with my answer, tell me also please. Im just a student that still learning.
