Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

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

M = log l/s

where I is the intensity of the earthquake and s 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

12. On addition, you can just combine like terms.
2v^3+(-v^3)=v^3
-v+v cancels each other out
8+(-3)=5
So you have v^3+5

14 On subtraction, you have to remember to distribute the negative sign so after you do that you have:
4h^3+3h+1+5h^3-6h+2
Then you can combine like terms
4h^3+5h^3=9h^3
3h-6h=-3h
1+2=3
So you end up with:
9h^3-3h+3

Hope that helps and feel free to ask any questions.

The lengths of two sides of a triangle are given.

Answer:

Range = 5 - 29

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b > c

a+c > b

c+b > a

17+ 12 > c ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, so it should be lesser than 17+12 which is 29

17 +c > 12 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and it should be greater than 17- 12 = 5

c+12 > 17 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, same here, it should be greater than 17- 12 = 5

So the range is ,

17 + 12

17-12

whcih is - (5 to 29)

I hope I am right!!!
