Mathematics
1 answer:

6 0

-3 (-5) - 3y = -6

15 - 3y = -6

-3y = -6 + (-15)

-3y = -21

y = -21 / -3

y = 7

The value of y is 7.

part b is: if the energy release of one earthquake is 10,000 times that of another, how much larger is the Richter scale reading
kotegsom [21]

You could use the information from part A to get B. I'm not sure if you want A or not, so I'll do it as well.

A

Eo = 10^4.4 Joules

E = 2 * 10^15

Formula

M = (2/3) log (E/Eo)

M = 2/3 * log (2 * 10^15/10^(4.4) )

M = 2/3 * log( 7.9621* 10^10)

M = 2/3 * 10.901

M = 7.26735 on the Richter scale. That is a huge amount of energy.

Part B

Suppose that you use Eo and your base. Eo is 10^4.4

Now the new earthquake is E = 10000 * Eo

So what you get now is M = (2/3)* Log(10000 * Eo / Eo )

The Eo's cancel out.

M = 2/3 * log(10000)

M = 2/3 of 4

M = 8/3

M = 2.6667 difference in the Richter Scale Reading. It is still an awful lot of energy.

What this tells you is that if the original reading was (say) 6 then the 10000 times bigger reading would 8.266667

Answer: M = 2.6667

How do I solve this finding the first four of the sequence?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

- 7, - 3, 1, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive rule and a₁ = - 7, then

a₂ = a₁ + 4 = - 7 + 4 = - 3

a₃ = a₂ + 4 = - 3 + 4 = 1

a₄ = a₃ + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5

The first four terms are - 7, - 3, 1, 5
