Practice objective / multiple choice question 8 from the 2017 Neco Model Questions Vol1 Geography examination.
Three zones (A, B, C) are assessed for landslide risk. Their areas, annual landslide probabilities and average economic loss per event are:\n\n- Zone A: 40 km², probability \(0.02\), loss \(\text{₦}1{,}500\) million\n- Zone B: 30 km², probability \(0.05\), loss \(\text{₦}800\) million\n- Zone C: 20 km², probability \(0.01\), loss \(\text{₦}2{,}000\) million\n\nThe regional risk index is defined as total expected annual loss divided by total area (Naira per km²). If the index exceeds \(\text{₦}800{,}000\) per km², the area is classified as "High" risk; otherwise "Low". Determine the risk classification.
