+546 in 1812 an earthquake with a magnitutde of 7.9 shook New Madrid, MO. Compare intensity level of that with the one stated below.
32) Magnitude 7.7 in CA, 1906
describe how the graph of the function compares with the graph of the parent function, y=log6x
40)y=log5x+1
+4473 32.) Intensities of magnitudes 7.7 & 7.9 are extremely similar since both are in the 7.0 - 7.9 range. The intensity level is written as roman numerals and in this case, it would be VII or higher meaning very strong+.

***Important note: MO is likely to have a lower population than CA and have lower population densisites as well due to historical factors. This implies that CA would have definitely had the higher intensity since there is a much higher population plus more buildings and structures in CA.
40.) https://www.desmos.com/calculator/axmle9o40e y = log6x is the red colored graph and the other one is in blue.
Note that the most obvious difference is that the blue one is shifted up one unit. The difference between log6x and log5x would be minimal, but because of the + 1, the log5x + 1 graph varies a bit more.
