We are required to compare the magnitude for two earthquake intensity:
the larger intensity is 7.9
the smaller intensity is 3.7
thus the ratio of the intensity will be:
(larger intensity)/(smaller intensity)
=7.9/3.7
=2.135
~2
Thus we conclude that:
The larger earthquake's intensity was 2 times as great as the smaller earthquake's intensity.
Answer
I do not think so.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer stays the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
For example, if you have 1/2 and multiply the numerator and the denominator by 4, you get 4/8. 4 divided by 8 still gives you 1/2.
We have such equation
1.25x=0.75x+50 /-0.75x (subtract 0.75 both sides)
1.25x-0.75x=0.75x-0.75x+50
0.5x=50 /*2 (multiply both sides times 2)
0.5x*2=50*2
x=100 - its the answer
