Which is the equation of a line that is parallel to 2x + 5y = 4 and goes through the point (5, –4) ? a. y=-2/5x-6 b. y=-2/5x+2 c. y=2/5x-6 d. y=-2/5x-2

we know that

if two lines are parallel

then

their slopes are equal

Step 1

Find the slope of the line 2x + 5y = 4

2x + 5y = 4> 5y=4-2x> y=(4/5)-(2/5)x> slope m=(-2/5)

step 2

with m=-2/5 and the point (5, –4) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m*(x-x1)> y+4=(-2/5)*(x-5)> y=(-2/5)x+2-4

y=(-2/5)x-2

therefore

the answer is the option D

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.  

b. hoped i'm right lol
