4.4 in a hypothetical seismically active region, earthquakes have been recorded over an 80-year period. part of the record is instrumental, but part is not. combining all available data, it appears that the earthquakes have been distributed as follows:
moment magnitude / number of earthquakes
3-4 / 1800
4-5 / 150
5-6 / 11
> 6 / 1
(a) estimate the gutenberg-richter parameters for the region.
(b) neglecting earthquakes of magnitude less than 3, compute the probability that an earthquake in the region will have a moment magnitude between 5.5 and 6.5,
(c) repeat part (b) assuming that paleoseismic evidence indicates that the region is not capable of producing earthquakes of moment magnitude greater than 6.5
i am wondering how to complete part b? i see the solution here on chegg, but i do not understand where the writer came up with the equation?

Geographers most often use this type of map to study the characteristics of regions such as population and naturalresources because blank spaces are put into the map to prevent distortion. feelperfet
