The magnitude of earthquakes in a certain region in North America can be modeled as an exponential distribution with mean 2.7, as measured on the Richter scale. Find the probability that exactly two of the next 5 earthquakes will exceed 6.0 on the Richter scale (assume the earthquakes’ magnitudes are independent from each other).
Homework Answers
X ~ exp (λ = 1 / 2.7 = 0.3704 )
P ( X > x ) = 1 - ( 1 - e(-λ* x) )
X ~ B ( n = 5 , P = 0.1084 )

3. From 2000-2019 there were a total of 3071 earthquakes worldwide with a magnitude of 6 or greater, or an average of about 0.42 such earthquakes per day.* Assume that moving forward the total number of such earthquakes to occur over any time period follows a Poisson distribution with an average of 0.42 earthquakes per day. For the remainder of this question, "earthquake" will mean an earthquake with a magnitude of 6 or greater. Define a new random variable as...

The intensity levels I of two earthquakes measured on a seismograph can be compared by the formula log I1 I2 = M1 − M2 where M is the magnitude given by the Richter scale. An earthquake of magnitude 6.4 hit a city. Two years later, that same region experienced yet another, more devastating earthquake, this time with a magnitude of 9.0. How many times greater was the intensity of the second earthquake? Round to the nearest whole number. times greater
