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 midpoint of the class 15-20
Furkat [3]
More data can be applied to the frequency distribution table. You can measure the "midpoint" (or "class mark") of each class as: Midpoint = Lower class limit + Upper class limit 2 . . The proportion of the data that falls in that class is the "relative frequency" of each class.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]
So basically when you are adding or subtracting fractions the denominators the number on the bottom of the fraction 12 in this case and 8 as well the two denominators sharing the least common multiple so what is the lowest multiple of 12 and 8 so count off 12: 12, 24, 36... 8: 8, 16 , 24 does that help?
