We have that 

<span>log10 E = 4.4 + 1.5<span>M
</span></span>E=<span>the released energy in Joules (J)
M= </span><span>earthquake measures---------- > 3.6
</span>log10 E = 4.4 + 1.5*3.6
log10 E = 9.8----------> E=10^(9.8)= 6.309573444 x10^9 J
<span>
the answer is  </span>6.309573444 x10^9 J<span>

Rewrite each expression without using absolute value notation |7m-56| if m&lt;8
dusya [7]

Considering the definition of the absolute value function, the expression is written as -7m + 56.

<h3>What is the definition of the absolute value function?</h3>

The absolute value function is defined as follows:

  • |x| = x, x \geq 0.
  • |x| = -x, x < 0

That is, where the expression is negative, it is multiplied by -1, while where it is not negative the expression is kept.

In this problem, the expression is:

|7m - 56|

For m < 8, we have that one example is m = 0:

7(0) - 56 = -56.

The expression is negative, hence the signal is changed, that is:

|7m - 56| = -(7m - 56) = -7m + 56.
