Figure ABCD is transformed to figure A prime B prime C prime D prime, as shown: A coordinate grid is shown from negative 5 to 0 to 5 on both x -and y-axes. A polygon ABCD has A at ordered pair 1, 3, B at ordered pair 3, 4, C at ordered pair 2, 1, D at ordered pair 1, 1. A polygon A prime B prime C prime D prime has A prime at ordered pair negative 3, 3, B prime at ordered pair negative 5, 4, C prime at ordered pair negative 4, 1, D prime at ordered pair negative 3, 1.

Which of the following sequences of transformations is used to obtain figure A prime B prime C prime D prime from figure ABCD?

Reflection about the x-axis followed by a translation to the right by 2 units
Reflection about the y-axis followed by a translation to the left by 2 units
Counterclockwise rotation by 90 degrees about the origin followed by a translation to the right by 2 units
Counterclockwise rotation by 90 degrees about the origin followed by a translation to the left by 2 units

d

step-by-step explanation:

by observation, we can see that the the graph is simply the graph of y = |x| that has been shifted 4 units downwards and 3 units to the left.

we can recognize in choice d :

y = | x + 3 |   - 4 (rewriting in general form)

y = | x - (- 3) |   - 4

the "-4 " term means   that the graph has been shifted by 4 units in the negative y direction

the "-3 " term means   that the graph has been shifted by 3 units in the negative x direction

this matches our observation of the graph described above.

x/3-10=8

x/3=18

x=48

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
