Guiding Question: How can you locate an epicenter.
Hypothesis: We have to find where the earth quake was felt the most. The map shows us where all three disturbances met.

City | Difference in P and S Wave Arrival Time | Distance to Epicenter |
Denver, Colorado | 2min 40 sec | 1,600 km |
Houston, Texas | 1 min 50 sec | 1,000 km |
Chicago, Illinois | 1 min 10 sec | 600 km |
Analyze and conclude:
1. Tennessee
2.
3. First- Chicago Last- Colorado
4. About 3,200 kilometers
5.
6. It is necessary to have 3 locations so you can find where all three locations or more intersect/come together. This is important because this way people could know where the most danger is going to be.
This is good so far, however, I would like to see the questions also in the post and not just the answers so I can see what you are answering. You have answered these ones correctly and I like that you included the graph, but the More to Explore is missing here.
