Answer:

Los angeles is more likely to experience a major earthquake.

Explanation:

According to the USGS (United States Geological Survey), there is a 60% chance that an earthquake of a magnitude of at least 6.7 occurs in Los Angeles within the next 30 years.

Plus, the San Andreas fault experiences major earthquakes every 40 - 240 years, and so far we have more than 160 years without one, so the chances are really high, and the catastrophic event is more likely to occur in Los Angeles.

When surveying subjects about sensitive or self-incriminating topics, what technique might be used to help ensure that individua
BartSMP [9]
The RR technique or the Randomized Response can be used to help ensure that individuals answer sensitive or self-incriminating questions honestly. It is developed by Warner (1965), which aims to eliminate or at least minimize non-response and dishonest answering by survey respondents. This is accomplished by separating the response from the respondent by introducing a controlled measure of chance or uncertainty, which amounts to randomization of the answering process. This protects the identity of the respondents, at the cost of introducing a degree of uncertainty into the responses.
