For seismograph A, the lag time is
5 minutes (difference between 6:10 and 6:05)
For seismograph B, the lag time is
15 minutes (difference between 6:25 and 6:10)

Assuming that earthquake waves have a constant velocity during the earthquake, then the seismograph with the shorter lag time is closer to the epicenter. So,
Seismograph is closes to the earthquake's epicenter

Lilit [14]
The answer is "5 minutes and 35 seconds".

Earthquakes create three kinds of seismic waves which are:P-waves that are primary waves, S-waves that are secondary wavesand surface waves,which land at seismic account stations in a steady progression.Both P and S waves enter the inside of the Earth while surface waves don't. Because of this, P and S waves are known as "body waves"
