Answer: 10, 100
Explanation:
Magnitudes are based on a logarithmic scale (base 10). For each whole number you go up, the amplitude of the ground motion recorded by a seismograph goes up ten times. Using this scale, a magnitude 5 earthquake would result in ten times the level of ground shaking as a magnitude 4 earthquake (and 32 times as much energy would be released).
1 unit increase corresponds to 10 fold increase in magnitude.
C. The number is even or less than 12
Explanation:
Number 2 can be selected randomly and According to option A the number selected should be greater than 2.
B option is saying that the number is not divisible by 5 but the sample set contains { 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} . 5 and 10 can be selected and they are divisible by 5.
According to C even number can be selected or the numbers that are lesser than 12. The word "or" should be note here . Any number even or odd may be selected but it will be lesser than 12 so this will be the correct option.
Every element of sample set is either prime or composite so the selected number can either be prime or composite
Square root of 9 is 3 and square root of 10 is greater than 3. Statement will not be correct if number 9 or number 10 got selected the
