Is the magnitude of an earthquake related to the depth below the surface at which the quake occurs? Let x be the magnitude of an earthquake (on the Richter scale), and let y be the depth (in kilometers) of the quake below the surface at the epicenter.

(Round your answer to four decimal places.)As x increases, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? Explain your answer.O Given our value of r, y should tend to increase as x increases.O Given our value of r, y should tend to remain constant as x increases.O Given our value of r, we can not draw any conclusions for the behavior of y as x increases.O Given our value of r, y should tend to decrease as x increases.
