Answer:
1. a) population of the town in 2024 = 8697
2.) the earthquake with a magnitude of 8 is a <u>100 times stronger</u> than an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) the population of a town was, in 2016.
a) Exponential growth model is given by where t is the time in years after 2016.
Year 2016 is when t = 0.
k = growth rate constant = 1.6% = 0.016
i) therefore the population of the town in 2024
= ( to the nearest whole number)
2.) log (I M
S) = magnitude of earthquake where I is the Intensity of the earthquake and S is the intensity of a standard earthquake
therefore I M
S =
therefore
