7. the table shows the location and magnitude of some notable earthquakes. how many times more energy was released by the earthquake in mexico than by the earthquake in afghanistan?
afghanistan 6.9
mexico 7.6
about 42.36 times as much energy
about 0.70 times as much energy
about 5.01 times as much energy
about 21 times as much energy

Option C. about 5.01 times as much energy

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question

Country                magnitude of the earthquake

Afghanistan              6.9

Mexico                      7.6

We know that when we compare the intensity of the earthquakes it is  represented by where M1 and M2 are the measurements of earthquakes in different areas.

Now ratio of the energy released by earthquake in Mexico and Afghanistan

=

Therefore Option C. is the answer.

22 and 22

step-by-step explanation:

10 plus 12 equals 22.

12 plus 10 also equals 22 because regardless of what order they're in, they're gonna equal the same thing.
