PLEASE HELP The logarithmic function y = logx + 7.9 can be used to determine the magnitude, y, of an earthquake given an intensity comparison, x, of a previous earthquake—in this case, an earthquake with a rating of 7.9 on the Richter Scale. This function is graphed below. What is the magnitude of an earthquake, y, that is six times as intense as the previous earthquake (rounded to the nearest tenth)? What intensity, x, is the aftershock with a magnitude of y = 8.2 (rounded to the nearest whole number) compared with the original 7.9 earthquake? (7 points)
Magnitude of earthquake: y = 9.0, intensity comparison: x = 4 times
Magnitude of earthquake: y = 8.7, intensity comparison: x = 2 times
Magnitude of earthquake: y = 29.0, intensity comparison: x = 1 time
Magnitude of earthquake: y = 8.7, intensity comparison: x = 3 times

Follow these steps using the algebra tiles to solve the equation −5x + (−2) = −2x + 4. 1. add 5 positive x-tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 2. add 4 negative unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 3. divide the unit tiles evenly among the x-tiles. x =
