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:

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the distance between two points i.e. (−5,−1) and (−3,−8).
It can be calculated using distance formula as follows :

We have, x₁ = -5, x₂ = -3, y₁ = -1 and y₂ = -8
Put all the values,

So, the distance between the points is equal to
