Schist has the highest metamorphic grade.
I would say that the Rocky Mts were the youngest of all these mountain ranges as they were created between 80-55 million years ago during the Laramide Orogeny and also they are generally much taller than the other mountain ranges mentioned here which is a characteristic of young mountain ranges and their features are sharper as they haven't been eroded the way most of these others have so have been subject to erosion for less time than the others.
Answer:
1. (x-4), (y+4)
2. In a transformation, the equation shows how much the original coordinate moves. In the equation above, the orignal coordinate would move to the left 4 places, and then up 4 places. This particular transformation is called a translation, as the shape is the same but only in a different spot.
3. Quadrilateral
4. The transformed polygon has the apostrophes after each letter, which means it is "prime" or not the original.
Explanation:
1. To write the equation, look at how the shape shifts. If the x coordinate moved 4 spaces to the left, then that means the equation is -4. Do the same for the y-coordinate, except keep in mind it is up and down instead of left or right.
2. The answer is self-explanatory.
3. A quadrilateral has 4 sides, and this can be applied to more specific shapes, such as a square or rectangle. Because this shape has no distinctive features, it is safest to call it a quadrilateral.
4. The answer is self-explanatory.
