Five times the larger of two consecutive odd integers is equal
to nineteen more than eight times
the smaller.

-3, -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Smaller is x

larger is x+2

5x+10=19+8x

subtract 10 and 5x

0=9+3x

subtract 9

-9=3x

divide 3

-3=x

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

8x+8> 7x+14

8x-7x> 14-8

x> 6

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.
