The magnitude, M, of an earthquake is defined to be M = log StartFraction I Over S EndFraction, where I is the intensity of the

earthquake (measured by the amplitude of the seismograph wave) and S is the intensity of a "standard" earthquake, which is barely detectable. Which equation represents the magnitude of an earthquake that is 10 times more intense than a standard earthquake? M = log StartFraction I Over S EndFraction M = log (10 S) M = log StartFraction 10 S Over S EndFraction M = log StartFraction 10 Over S EndFraction.

The equation represents the magnitude of an earthquake that is 10 times more intense than a standard earthquake is \rm M = log\left ( \dfrac{10S}{S}\right ).

Given

The magnitude, M, of an earthquake is defined to be M = log StartFraction I Over S EndFraction, where I is the intensity of the earthquake (measured by the amplitude of the seismograph wave) and S is the intensity of a "standard" earthquake, which is barely detectable.

<h3>The magnitude of an earthquake</h3>

The magnitude of an earthquake is a measure of the energy it releases.

For an earthquake with 1,000 times more intense than a standard earthquake.

The equation represents the magnitude of an earthquake that is 10 times more intense than a standard earthquake is;

\rm M =log \dfrac{I}{S}\\\\M = log \dfrac{10s}{s}\\\\M=log 10\\\\M =1

Hence, the equation represents the magnitude of an earthquake that is 10 times more intense than a standard earthquake is \rm M = log\left ( \dfrac{10S}{S}\right ).

What is the solution of the system of equations? y = –3x + 8 y = –5x – 2
jekas [21]
y=-3x+8 \\ y=-5x-2 \\  \\ -3x+8=-5x-2 \\ -3x+5x=-2-8 \\ 2x=-10 \\ x=- \frac{10}{2}  \\ x=-5 \\ y=-3(-5)+8=15+8=23  \\ \\ \boxed{-5,23}

I attached the question
noname [10]
5x = 4y - 3

The correct answer is D. 5x - 4y = -3

This is because standard form is the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are coefficients or constants of the variables x and y.  Thus, Answer D (above) is the correct answer to this problem, as it is the only option that fits this.

Mr. Palmer deposited $850 into a simple interest account for 8 years, earning at an 8% interest rate. What will his total balanc
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

solution given:

principal [P]=$850

time[T]=8years

rate[R]=8%

now

simple interest [S.I.]=\frac{P×T×R}{100} =$ \frac{850×8×8}{100} =$544

so

Total balance=S.I.+P=$544+$850=$1394.

<u>option b.$1,394.00 is your answer</u>

Suppose y varies directly as x and y=21 when x=7. which is an equation relating x and y
astra-53 [7]
Y varies directly as x: y=kx, k is a constant.
when x=7, y=21, so we know k=3
therefore, the equation is y=3x
