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.

Which point does the line with equation y+4=3(x-7) pass through?
gregori [183]
<span>y+4=3(x-7)
y + 4 = 3x - 21
y = 3x - 21 -4
y = 3x - 25

when x = 7
y = 3(7) - 25
y = -4
Therefore (7, -4) pass through this equation </span>
