Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given
equation.
,5), y = - 4x + 2

leave the steps on how to do it to (edit: i did not mean to put this in biology i am so sorry)

y = -4x - 3

Explanation:

The graph of y = -4x +2  has a slope

m = -4

The parallel line must also have slope

m= -4

Substitute the point and the slope into the equation

y = mx + b

5 = -4(-2) + b

5 = 8 + b

b = 5 - 8 = -3

The equation for the parallel line is

y = -4x - 3

The diagram below shows the parallel line passing through the point (-2,5).

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.

those characteristics are cellular organization, reproduction, metabolism, homeostasis, heredity, response to stimuli, growth and development, and adaptation through evolution. some things, such as a virus, demonstrate only a few of these characteristics and are, therefore, not alive
