Hey there :)
We have two equations:
3a + 2b = 7
2a + 2b = 9
We need to solve simultaneously to find the values of a and b
eq.1 3a + 2b = 7
eq.2 ( 2a + 2b = 9 ) x -1 ) multiply by -1 to cancel 2b
3a + 2b = 7
- 2a - 2b = -9 ( Add both together )
-------------------
a = - 2
Substitute the value you found for a in a in order to find b
3( - 2 ) + 2b = 7 2( - 2 ) + 2b = 9
- 6 + 2b = 7 OR - 4 + 2b = 9
2b = 13 2b = 13
b =
b =

Answer:
d. about 50 times larger
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expressions for magnitude (M) can be solved for the intensity (I). Then the ratio of intensities is ...
The larger earthquake had about 50 times the intensity of the smaller one.
