Answer:

distance to the epicenter

largest seismic S-wave amplitude value

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are trying to fill in the gaps with the right answer.

The correct answers are used to fill in the gaps as follows;

An earthquake’s Richter magnitude rating is is measured on Richter scale chart by connecting a line from the left side distance to the epicenter to the right side largest seismic S-wave amplitude whereby the line intersects the central magnitude scale at the appropriate value -1 to 6

The Richter magnitude is a scale used in measuring how big or small i.e the strength of an earthquake
