Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnitude, M, of an earthquake is defined to be

M = log l/s

where <em>I</em> is the intensity of the earthquake and <em>s</em> is the intensity of a “standard” earthquake.

If an earthquake that is 35 times more intense than a standard earthquake, then l/s = 35. Replacing it in the equation:

M = log 35 = 1.5

If pentagon OPQRS is dilated by a scale factor of seven over four from the origin to create O'P'Q'R'S', what is the ordered pair

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The ordered pair of P'=(-8.75, 5.25)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the ordered pair of point P' you simply have to multiply the coordinates of P by scale factor of 7/4

P:(-5,3)

P'(x,y)= (-5* 7/4, 3*7/4)

P'(x,y) = (-35/4 , 21/4)

P'(x,y) = (-8.75, 5.25)..

Thus the ordered pair of P'=(-8.75, 5.25)....

Answer:

The graph

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) for the graph is 8

f(2) for the function is -22
