Intersect at where x=x and y=y
see where they have the same x and y values
that is at x=-1 and y=-5
intersect at (-1,-5)
Answer:
Relative Size, S, is 1584.89
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is 
Where,
- R is the measurement in Richter Scale
- S is the relative size of the earthquare
<u>It is given that in Richter Scale, an earthquake measured 3.2, so
.</u>
<em>They want to know relative size, S, so we put given information in equation and solve for S:</em>

<em>Converting to exponential form, we have:</em>

<em>Rounding to nearest hundredth, we have:</em>

the formula is a_{1}+(n-1) d
so a_{1} would be the first number in the sequence, which would be 13 in problem 9.
13+(n-1)d
then you put in n, which is 10 (it represents which number in the sequence you're looking for, for example 16 is the second number in the sequence)
13+(10-1)d
then you find the difference between each number, represented by d which in this case is 3
13+(10-1)3
13+(9)3
13+27=
40
