The Richter magnitude of an earthquake is determined from the measurement of the amplitude of the largest seismic waves (amplitude of the surface waves)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The SAT is a standardized test that widely used for college admissions in the United States

The Richter magnitude scale is the number scale used to tell the power or magnitude of earthquakes. Charles Richter developed the Richter Scale in 1935.

Earthquake is any ground sudden shaking caused by the passage of seismic waves through Earth's rocks.

The Richter magnitude of an earthquake is determined from the measurement of the amplitude of the largest seismic waves (amplitude of the surface waves).

Seismic waves, like all waves, transfer energy from one place to another without moving material. Seismic waves have two types such as compressional, longitudinal waves or shear, transverse waves. The amplitude of the largest seismic wave of a magnitude 5 quake is 10 times that of a magnitude 4 quake and 100 times that of a magnitude 3 quake.

Based on the payoffs and the probabilities given, we can calculate the mean to be <u>0.8 shots made. </u>

<h3>What is the mean?</h3>

The mean in this scenario will be a weighted average of the probabilities that a number of shots will be made.

The mean will be:

<em>= ∑ (Number of shots x Probability of number of shots)</em>

= (0 x 0.36) + (1 x 0.48) + (2 x 0.16)

= 0.8 shots

In conclusion, the mean is 0.8 shots.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

A. property risk

Explanation:

Jeannine is protecting herself against property risk. This type of risk applies to events that directly affect the individual's property in any way and could not have been avoided/prevented. This includes fires, floods, weather, and natural disasters, terrorist attacks, etc. If such an event occurs and damages your property, an insurance policy that covers property risk would cover your damages up to the value stated in the policy. However, this does not cover damages caused by mistakes made on your behalf such as damages when remodeling or parties thrown, etc.
