9.52 × 10-8
We are required to compare the magnitude for two earthquake intensity:
the larger intensity is 7.9
the smaller intensity is 3.7
thus the ratio of the intensity will be:
(larger intensity)/(smaller intensity)
=7.9/3.7
=2.135
~2
Thus we conclude that:
The larger earthquake's intensity was 2 times as great as the smaller earthquake's intensity.
Answer:
x=122/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
6(x+1)(3)−10=740
18x+18+−10=740(Distribute)
(18x)+(18+−10)=740(Combine Like Terms)
18x+8=740
18x+8=740
Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides.
18x+8−8=740−8
18x=732
Step 3: Divide both sides by 18.
18x
