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 value of a car depreciates by 35% per year. Work out the current value of a car bought 2 years ago for £20000
Rzqust [24]

First year: the depreciation is (35/100) x 20000 = £7000; now the value of the car is £20000 - £7000 = £13000;

Second year: the depreciation is (35/100) x 13000 = £4550; the current value of the car is £13000 - £4550 = £8450.
