Directions: 1) Construct a graph (using any graphing or spreadsheet program) relating earthquake magnitude to death and answer the following questions at the bottom of the graph (type your answer): A) Does there appear to be a good correlation between the number of deaths and the earthquake magnitude? Can you explain why or why not? B) List two reasons why a large earthquake might result in only a small loss of life. 2) Construct a second graph relating the number of earthquakes by country of origin. REMEMBER: A good graph relates the information as clearly as possible. Does your first graph clearly show the relationship between magnitude and deaths? Does your second graph make it easy to see which country had the most earthquakes? Have you given the graph a title and labeled the x- and y-axis? *#*THIS EXERCISE MUST BE COMPLETED INDEPENDENTLY*# (Additional directions on back/second page) Some Notable Earthquakes Magnitude Deaths 1906 San Francisco, California 8.1 1,500 1908 Messina, Italy 7.6 120,000 1923 Tokyo, Japan 7.9 143,000 1960 Southern Chile 8.5 5,700 1964 Alaska 8.4 131 1970 Peru 7.8 66,000 1971 San Fernando, California 6.5 65 1975 Liaoning Province, China 7.5 3 1976 Tangshan, China 7.6 200,000 1985 Mexico City 8.1 9,500 1988 Armenia 6.9 25,000 1989 San Francisco, California 7.1 62 1990 Northwest Iran 7.3 50,000 1994 Northridge, California 6.7 61 1995 Kobe, Japan 6.9 5,472 2004 Sumatra (Indonesia) 9.0 225,000 2010 New Zealand 7.1 2 2010 Haiti 7 159,000 2011 Mineral, Virginia 5.8 0 2011 Tohoku, Japan 9.0 19,000 2017 Oaxaca, Mexico 8.2 98 2017 Puebla, Mexico 7.1 370 ATTACH THE BOX BELOW TO THE TOP OF YOUR EXERCISE DIRECTLY ABOVE YOUR GRAPHS (CUT AN PASTE).
