The table represents a linear function. A two column table with six rows. The first row, x, has the entries negative 4, negative 2, negative 1, 1, 2. The second column, y, has the entries, negative 2, negative 10, negative 14, negative 22, negative 26. What is the slope of the function? –8 –4 2 5

i do not know the answer

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.

step-by-step explanation:

divide 13.5 by 9 to get the scale factor. it equals 1.5

2 * 1.5 = 3
