A cosine function has a period of 4, a maximum value of 20, and a minimum value of 0. The function is not a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. Which function could be the function described?

a. f(x)=10cos(2x)−10
b. f(x)=−10cos(π/2x)+10
c. f(x)=10cos(π/2x)+10
d. f(x)=−10cos(2x)+10

the third one

Step-by-step explanation:

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.  

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
