By rename do you mean turn into an improper fraction?
if so, it is because without turning it into an improper fraction, you cannot subtract 3/4 from 1/4 because you would get a negative answer and that would be incorrect
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.
The answer is C. California sits on top of two of Earth's major tectonic plates... meaning that it is very likely for earthquakes to happen
Answer:
II and III
Explanation:
A species is classified as endangered when it comes to a situation where the number of individuals within the species is so low that it might not be enough for it to reproduce properly and survive. Also, when species is listed as endangered, the chances are very high that the species will go extinct.
In order for the species to be saved, there are numerous methods that are used:
- One thing is to make the hunting of the species illegal, usually making a very strict law that would fend off anyone tempted to do so.
- Creating a special program for monitoring the species, where every individual will be tracked, constantly checked, and protected on the ground.
- Any entry into the area where the species lives to be forbidden, except for scientific goals related to the species, and even for it to have a species permit.
Unfortunately, this doesn't always have the wanted effect, and despite all efforts some species go extinct, like it is the example with several species of rhinos in the past century. On the other hand, there are species that seem to be extremely resilient, and despite having very low numbers, they manage to survive, even if they don't have any particular rise in their populations, like it is the examples of the Iberian lynx and the Balkan lynx.
Very often, the method of breeding individuals in captivity of a species that is endangered is used. This is done so that there are controlled circumstances and no danger for the offspring, thus to maximize the chances of their survival. By using this method though, special programs are needed afterwards in order to prepare the young ones for life in the wilderness, which is not always successful.
