5. Seismologists use the Richter scale to measure the magnitudes and intensity of
earthquakes that occur all over the earth. (see below, some info about Richter scales,
and intensity formula)
Let's say an earthquake hit Santa Monica, CA and had a magnitude of 6.2. If another
earthquake hit Charleston, SC and was a magnitude of 3.8, then how much more
intense was the earthquake in LA?

A common logarithm is a logarithm with base 10. You can write a common logarithm logio * simply as log x, without
showing the 10
Many measurements of physical phenomena have such a wide range of values that the reported measurements are
logarithms (exponents) of the values, not the values themselves. When you use the logarithm of a quantity instead of the
quantity, you are using a logarithmic scale. The Richter scale is a logarithmic scale. It gives logarithmic measurements
of earthquake magnitudo.

Joshua: 143.826 grams

Phoebe: 144 grams

Oliver: Unsure, but for sure what shouldn't happen

Joshua (advantage): It is actually good to include decimals into your information because more information helps assist in experiments with proper results but you must also not include unnessessary information

Phoebe (disadvantage): You should include decimals in information, especially relating to scale weighing and her method lacks decimals

Oliver (disadvantage): This experiment already involves grams and therefore you shouldn't change the form of measurement unless it requests for it to happen

Joshua: 143.826 grams (advantageous)

Phoebe: 144 grams (Disadvantage)

Oliver: Disadvantage

Changing a number's digits so that it approximates a value is known as rounding a number. The provided number is more simply represented by this value. For instance, 700,000 rather than 698,869 could be used to express a town's population.

Joshua:

Although it is beneficial to add decimals in your data since more information aids in experiments producing accurate results, you should avoid including unnecessary information.

Phoebe's method lacks decimals, which is a drawback because it pertains to scale weighing and you should include them in information.

Oliver : As this experiment already uses grammes, you shouldn't modify the units of measurement until specifically instructed to do so.

Answer:

the sample standard deviation and t distribution can be used

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential equation is given by y = 700(2)ˣ

An exponential function is given by:

y = abˣ

where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.

Let y represent the population of fish after x hours.

Given that he starts with 700 fishes, hence

a = 700

The population of the fish doubles every year, hence:

b = 2

Answer: 23.76 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You are basically finding the perimeter for question a

given that perimeter is [tex]\pi[/tex]d

Subsitute the values

So perimeter = [tex]\pi[/tex] x 5.5 = 5.5 [tex]\pi[/tex] miles = 17.28 miles (2.d.p)

For question b, the area of the surface of Crater lake is finding its area

Given that area of a circle is [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Substitute the values

Because 5.5 is the diameter, to find the radius, divide by 2 to get 2.75

Area = 2.75^2 x [tex]\pi[/tex] = 7.5625[tex]\pi[/tex] = 23.76 miles^2 (2.d.p)

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to find the 17 and 8 triangles missing sides length so we do a squared plus b squared equals c square and since we have c which is 17 we subtract 8 squared or 64 from 17 square and we get 225. next the missing line from the next one is done the same way 225 minus 9 squared or 81 and we get 144 and the square root of that is 12 we do 12 squared 144 minus 6 squared because we already know that the side is six because it gives it to us and we get 10.392

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have this many fractions and they all have the same numerator, then the smallest number will have the biggest denominator and the biggest number will have the smallest.

So when you have all numbers with the same numerator and you're trying to put them in order from smallest to greatest, it's like putting the denominators in order from largest to smallest. (So, the 1/24 is the SMALLEST and the 1/2 is the BIGGEST.

x^2+3x+(9/4)=43-3+(9/4)

(x+(3/2))^2=42 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

let positive integer be x

x² + 3(x+1)=43

x²+3x+3-43=0

x² + 3x - 40 = 0

x² + 8x - 5x - 40 = 0

x(x+8) - 5(x+8)=0

(x-5)(x+8)=0

x-5=0 or x+8=0

x=5. or x=-8

therefore, x=5

Answer: Bruce's speed is 3.75 mph(miles per hour).

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers on a die are 1,2,3,4,5,6 which are all greater than zero, so the probability is 6/6 or 100%.

1−w−w2=64

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−w2−w+1=64

Step 2: Subtract 64 from both sides.

−w2−w+1−64=64−64

−w2−w−63=0

For this equation: a=-1, b=-1, c=-63

−1w2+−1w+−63=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=-1, b=-1, c=-63.

w= −b±√b2−4ac /2a

w= −(−1)±√(−1)2−4(−1)(−63) /2(−1)

w= 1±√−251/ −2

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

For each die, there are only two possible outcomes, either a 3 or a 4 is rolled, or it is not. The result of a roll is independent of any other roll, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

In this problem:

The desired probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{9} = 0.026[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.3333)^{1}.(0.6667)^{8} = 0.117[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.026 + 0.117 = 0.143[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.143 = 0.857[/tex]

0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.
