The 1985 Mexico City earthquake measured a magnitude 8.0 on the Richter scale. The Richter scale uses the function M (I) = log (StartFraction I Over I Subscript 0 Baseline EndFraction). Which equation relates the intensity of the 1985 earthquake, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, Io?

A.) I = 810(Io)

B.) Io = 810(I)

C.) I = 108(Io)

D.) Io = 108(I)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is C: I = 10⁸I₀.   

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the Richter scale is:

[tex] M_{(I)} = log(\frac{I}{I_{0}}) [/tex]

Since the magnitude of the earthquake is 8.0, the relation between the intensity, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, Io, is:

[tex] 8.0 = log(\frac{I}{I_{0}}) [/tex]

[tex] 10^{8} = \frac{I}{I_{0}} [/tex]

[tex] I = 10^{8}I_{0} [/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C: I = 10⁸I₀.                

I hope it helps you!                    

Answer 2

The equation relates with the intensity of the 1985 earthquake, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, [tex]I_0[/tex] is [tex]I = 10^8I_0[/tex].

Given that,

The 1985 Mexico City earthquake measured a magnitude of 8.0 on the Richter scale.

The Richter scale uses the function M (I) = log (Start Fraction I Over I Subscript 0 Baseline End Fraction).

We have to determine,

Which equation relates the intensity of the 1985 earthquake, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, Io.

According to the question,

The function of the Richter scale is:

[tex]M_(_I_) =log[ \dfrac{I}{I_0}][/tex]

The magnitude of the earthquake is 8.0, the relation between the intensity, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, [tex]I_0[/tex] is:

[tex]M_(_I_) =log[ \dfrac{I}{I_0}]\\\\8 =log[ \dfrac{I}{I_0}][/tex]

Taking log base 10 both sides,

[tex]10^8 = \dfrac{I}{I_0}\\\\I = 10^8I_0[/tex]

Hence, The equation relates with the intensity of the 1985 earthquake, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, [tex]I_0[/tex] is [tex]I = 10^8I_0[/tex].

Raphael purchases a new DVD at M-Mart. He
pays 8% in tax on the cost of the DVD. If the tax
amount is $1.20, how much does Raphael
spend on the DVD, including tax?

Answers

Answer:

The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax is $16.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax on DVD = 8%

Amount of tax = $1.20

We need to find the amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax.

Let the cost of DVD = x

We can write the equation: [tex]8\%\:of\:x=1.20[/tex]

Because the tax amount is 8% of actual cost and is equal to 1.20

Now solving to find x:

[tex]8\%\:of\:x=1.20\\8\%\times\:x=1.20\\\frac{8}{100}\times x=1.20 \\x=1.20 \times \frac{100}{8}\\x= 15[/tex]

So, the cost of DVD = $15

Now, The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax = Cost of DVD + Tax

The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax = 15 + 1.2

                                                                                    = 16.2

So, The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax is $16.2

HELP ILY A tree is 4 1/2 feet tall. It is expected to grow by 1 3/4
feet per year.
At this growth rate, how many years will it take for the tree to have a height greater than 40 feet? Enter the answer in the box.
years

Answers

Answer:

It will take 21 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find what x would be for it to equal 40 feet. This can be done with the equation 4.5 + 1.75x = 40.

4.5 + 1.75x = 40

Subtract 4.5 from both sides. This cancels out the +4.5.

1.75x = 40 - 4.5

Subtract 4.5 from 40 to get 35.5.

1.75x = 35.5

Divide both sides by 1.75. This cancels out the *1.75.

x = 35.5/1.75

Expand 35.5/1.75 by multiply both the numerator and denominator by 100.

x = 3550/175

Reduce 3550/175 by canceling out 25.

x = 142/7 = 20 2/7

Go up by one from 20 to get the answer of 21 years.

Which equation shows the result of substituting and expression for y from the first equation into the second equation for the given system {y=x+5 {y-2x=2

Answers

Answer:

x-2x = -3 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

y=x+5.... 1

y-2x=2.... 2

Substituting the first equation into the second we will have;

From 2;

y -2x = 2

x+5-2x = 2

x-2x +5 = 2

x-2x = 2-5

x-2x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a translation over the x-axis keeps the same x value but flips the y value (makes it the opposite.)

so here, C starts at point (1,-2). when reflected over the x-axis this becomes (1,2)

a translation to the left subtracts from the x value

the coordinate changes from (1,2) to (-2,2) because 3 is subtracted from 1

=》 x = 16 / 2

=》 x = 8

i hope u got it

have a nice day

Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{16}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The outer and inner triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{6}{6+12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{16}[/tex] , that is

[tex]\frac{6}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{16}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

18x = 96 ( divide both sides by 18 )

x = [tex]\frac{96}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{3}[/tex]
