In a certain year, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck California. In another year, a magnitude 5.8 quake struck Kansas. How many times as intense as the Kansas quake was the California quake?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The California quake was 1.34 times as intense as the Kansas quake.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times as intense as Kansas (K) quake was the California (C) quake first, we need to find the ratio of intensity (I) between those earthquakes:

[tex] \frac{I_{C}}{I_{K}} = \frac{7.8}{5.8} = 1.34 [/tex]

Now, by multiplying the above number for the intensity of the Kansas quake we should have the intensity of the California quake:

[tex] I_{K} = 1.34*5.8 = 7.8 [/tex]

Therefore, the California quake was 1.34 times as intense as the Kansas quake.

I hope it helps you!

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

In the expression 4y - 6x² + 5 + 9x, there are

4 terms. (4y/6x²/5/9x) A term consists of a coefficient and a variable, or otherwise a constant term like 5.

Question 2:

4(6x - 5) - 7x

= (24x - 20) - 7x

= 17x - 20.

Therefore the correct answers are

the 1st and 2nd options.

Question 3:

3x - 8y + 11x - 4 + 5y

= (3x + 11x) + (5y - 8y) - 4

= 14x - 3y - 4.

The 4th option is correct.

Question 1

There are 4 terms.

They are 4y, 6x^2, 5, and 9x.

Terms are separated by operation signs (+, -, ×, ÷).

Even if a constant is multiplied by a variable, if there isn't a multiplication sign, it's one single term.

Question 2

Use the distributive property. Multiply the term outside the variable by the terms inside.

4×6x = 24x

4×(-5)=-20 (there's a negative sign incase you don't see it)

24x-20-7x

Since 24x and 7x are like terms, you can subtract them.

24x-7x=17x

17x-20

You can see the first and second choices are correct.

Question 3

Combine the like terms.

The like terms are

3x and 11x

-8y and 5y

-4

Add them all.

3x+11x=14x

-8y+5y=-3y

-4

So the expression simplified is...

14x-3y-4

It's the third choice.

We have two sets of numbers and are asked to compare using the <, >, = symbols.

Remember :

= means equal to

One thing I was told in 2nd grade when this subject came over for the first time, was to think of the symbol as a crocodile and that it wants to eat the bigger number, with the opening of it being the mouth of the crocodile. Therefore, out of 874,023 and 874,233. Which is the bigger number?

874,223.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

What is the probability of getting 2 of the same colour?

Both blue or both red

Since they are replaced, we have, in each trial:

6 blue from a set of 6 + 5 = 11

5 red from a set of 6 + 5 = 11

Probability of both blue:

Each with 6/11 probability. So

[tex]P = (\frac{6}{11})^2 = \frac{36}{121}[/tex]

Probability of both red:

Each with 5/11 probability. So

[tex]P = (\frac{5}{11})^2 = \frac{25}{121}[/tex]

Total:

[tex]p = \frac{36}{121} + \frac{25}{121} = \frac{61}{121} = 0.5041[/tex]

0.5041 = 50.41% probability of getting 2 of the same colour

The linear factors of the given polynomial are (2x+3)(x+1)(x+2+i)(x+2-i)

What is linear factor?

The linear factors of polynomials are the first-degree equations that act as the building block for the simple or complex higher-order polynomials.

Given that, a polynomial 2x⁴+13³+27x²+13x-15, the remainder upon division with x²+4x +5 is zero,

That means, x²+4x +5 is a factor of the given polynomial,

On diving 2x⁴+13³+27x²+13x-15 by x²+4x +5 we get 2x²+5x+3 as quotient that means,  x²+4x +5 and 2x²+5x+3 are the factors of the polynomial,

On factorizing both the factors we get,

(2x+3)(x+1)(x+2+i)(x+2-i)

Hence, the linear factors of the given polynomial are (2x+3)(x+1)(x+2+i)(x+2-i)
