• Climate change increases local plant species richness, at least temporarily
• Empirical and modeled data suggest an increase of ∼5% per decade in cool regions
• Climatic perturbation is identified as a process driving biodiversity accrual
• Uneven global coverage of field data could be obscuring other climatic effects
Answer:
(6,2)
Step by Step explanation:
1- Add the two equations so the Xs cancel out
2- find y by dividing 6 from both sides
3- plug in the y value in the place of the y in one of the equations
4- solve the equation to find X
5 - put answer in correct format (x,y)
-2 + 3b = 5b - 2(2b + 3) Distribute the -2 through the parentheses.
-2 + 3b = 5b - 4b - 6 Combine like terms
-2 + 3b = b - 6 Bring all "b's" to one side of the equation
-2 + 3b - b = b - b - 6 Combine like terms
-2 + 2b = -6 Bring the 2 to the right side of the equation
-2 + 2 + 2b = -6 + 2 Combine like terms
2b = -4 Isolate b by dividing both sides by 2
b = -4/2 = -2
Answer b = -2
