Using the following variable bindings:

(setq x ‘(a b c d))

(setq y ‘(1 2 3 4))

Using only variables x and y, car, cdr, and cons, use Lisp expressions to generate:

 

Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction

In Lisp, with the given variables x and y, we can construct the list (d c b a) using car, cdr, and cons functions. This task involves reversing the elements of list x. By skillfully employing these basic Lisp operations, we can achieve the desired result, transforming x into the reversed list (d c b a).
