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>
</span>
Hey the answer is -0.2. You have to divide 10 by both sides to isolate the variable
1. 15x
2. 21
3. 4
You’re welcome
