Could you elaborate on the question?
Answer:
If a desert became flooded, some species would immeadiately go extinct, distrupting the ecosystem, biodiversity, and the food web. This flood might cause new species to enter the ecosystem as well, through means such as rafting. Other species would be forced to adapt to the new environment, leading to adaptation and possibly speciation. For a time the ecosystem would not be very stable, but after a relatively short time, 10 or 20 years, the ecosystem could stabilize itself. So my conclusion is that ecosystems are relatively fluid, they can adapt to almost anything if they have enough time and the change in environment isn’t too drastic.
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = 1/4x....slope here is 1/4. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, " flip " the number and change the sign. So the negative reciprocal for our perpendicular line is -4.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -4
(2,-5)...x = 2 and y = -5
now we sub and find b, the y int
-5 = -4(2) + b
-5 = -8 + b
-5 + 8 = b
3 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -4x + 3
Answer: (4,6)
Explanation:
x - 3y = -14
x - y = -2
Multiply a -1 to the first equation so the x’s can cancel out.
-x + 3y = 14
x - y = -2
Subtract the two equations together.
2y = 12
y=6
Now, plug in y to one of the original equations.
x - (6) = -2
x=4
Therefore, the answer is: (4,6)
