Answer:

The five main latitude regions of Earth's surface comprise geographical zones[1], divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:

The North Frigid Zone, between the North Pole at 90° N and the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

The North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N and the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface.

The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S and the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The South Frigid Zone, from the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S and the South Pole at 90° S, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

Can yall pls help Asap!!

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.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The most intelligible choice to make (in my opinion) would be to deny my friends offer. Although I would love to go out with my friends I believe that the punishment I would recive from my parents would be terrible. I would explain the situation to my friend and ask to possibly go out another time when my parents would allow it. Trust is very easy to lose and extremely difficult to earn back and I would be very scared to disappoint my parents.

This is just my opinion tho! Hope this helps! :D
