Need help ASAP please!!! The formula determines the magnitude of an earthquake, where I is the intensity of the earthquake and S

is the intensity of a “standard earthquake.” How many times stronger is an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 than an earthquake with a magnitude of 6? Show your work.

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

M = log(I/S)

The intensity of the first earthquake:

8 = log(I₁/S)

10⁸ = I₁/S

I₁ = 10⁸ S

The intensity of the second earthquake:

6 = log(I₂/S)

10⁶ = I₂/S

I₂ = 10⁶ S

The ratio is:

I₁/I₂ = (10⁸ S) / (10⁶ S)

I₁/I₂ = 100

It is 100 times stronger.

The hexagonal prism has a an equation of volume = base * height.

Since we already know the base is 8 sq feet, we can plug in some values and use x as a missing value

40 = 8 * x
Divide by 8
5 = x

X is equal to 5.

Find all solutions in the integers of the equation ||x−3|−5| = 10, where the bars indicate absolute value.
Helga [31]

Answer:

x = 18 or x = -12.

Step-by-step explanation:

||x-3|-5| = 10 only if |x-3|-5 = 10 or |x-3|-5 = -10, i.e., if |x-3|=15 or |x-3|=-5; but |x-3| cannot be equal to -5, because |x-3| should be a non-negative value. Therefore, the first equation is true only if |x-3|=15. |x-3| = 15 only if x-3 = 15 or x-3 = -15, i.e., x = 18 or x = -12.  We can verify this in the following way: ||18-3|-5|=||15|-5|=|10|=10 and ||-12-3|-5|=||-15|-5|=|15-5|=|10|=10. This verify that our solution is correct.
