The magnitude of the Pennsylvania earthquake is 4.

<h3>What is a logarithm function?</h3>

An exponent is a logarithm. You may convert any exponential expression to logarithmic form. As an illustration, if 8 = 23, the base is 2, the exponent is 3, and the outcome is 8. This may be represented as 3 = log2 8 in logarithmic notation.

The equation y=logb(x+h)+k shifts the logarithmic function, y=logbx, by k units vertically and h units horizontally.

Using the formula,

log I₁ / I₂ = M₁ - M₂

M₁ = 7.7,     I₁ / I₂ = 4900

log 4900 = 7.7 - M₂

log 4900 ≈ 3.69

On calculating,

M₂ ≈ 4

The magnitude of the Pennsylvania earthquake is 4.

Write an expression for the eighth partial sum of the series using summation notation
balandron [24]

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

9/10 + 6/5 + 3/2...........

We find the difference between the terms

\frac{6}{5} - \frac{9}{10}

\frac{12}{10} - \frac{9}{10} = \frac{3}{10}

We will get the same difference when we subtract consecutive terms.

so , d= 3/10, a= 9/10

we find the formula for nth term

a_n = a+(n-1) d

a_n = \frac{9}{10} + (n-1)\frac{3}{10}

a_n = \frac{9}{10} +\frac{3}{10}n-\frac{3}{10}

a_n = \frac{6}{10} +\frac{3}{10}n

a_n = \frac{3}{5} +\frac{3}{10}n

we need to find eighth partial sum so we  take n=1 to 8

sum of 8 terms (\frac{3}{5} +\frac{3}{10}n)

So option B is correct

Which of the following is a polynomial with roots negative square root of 5, square root of 5, and 3?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

x^{3}-3x^{2}-5x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of the given polynomial are: -\sqrt{5}, \sqrt{5}, 3

Since, -\sqrt{5}, \sqrt{5}, 3 are the roots of the polynomial, according to the factor theorem, (x - (-\sqrt{5})), (x-\sqrt{5}), (x-3) would be the factors of the polynomial.

Since we have the factors of the polynomial, we can multiply them to get the desired polynomial.

Let the polynomial be represented by P(x), so

P(x) = (x - (-\sqrt{5}))(x-\sqrt{5})(x-3)\\\\ P(x)=(x +\sqrt{5})(x-\sqrt{5})(x-3)\\\\ P(x)=(x^{2}-(\sqrt{5} )^{2})(x-3)\\\\ P(x)=(x^{2}-5)(x-3)\\\\ P(x)=x^{3}-3x^{2}-5x+15

The polynomial represented by P(x) has the given roots.
