Using proportions, it is found that the same job will take Mrs. Squirrel 6 hours.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
The times are given as follows:
- Mr. Pigeon: 30 minutes = Half an hour = 1/48 day.
The ratios are as follows:
Turtle/Squirrel = Squirrel/Pigeon.
Hence:
x = 1/4.
It takes 1/4 of a day for Mrs. Squirrel to do the job, hence 1/4 x 24 hours = 6 hours.

Answer:
1 = -5x-4 add 4 to both sides
-5x = 1+4 divide both sides by (-5)
x = -5/5
x= -1
Answer:
B. (1, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
In a function, each value used in as an x-coordinate can be used only once.
Values already used as x-coordinates: -3, 8, 0, -5
The answer cannot have -3, 8, 0, or 5 as an x-coordinate.
The only choice without one of those four values as an x-coordinate is (1, 2).
Answer: B. (1, 2)
The area of the flower bed is 77 square feet
<h3>How to determine the area?</h3>
The given parameters are:
- Shape = Triangle
- Perpendicular sides = 14 feet and 11 feet
The area of the flower bed is calculated as:
Area = 0.5 * Product of perpendicular sides
So, we have:
Area = 0.5 * 14 * 11
Evaluate
Area = 77
Hence, the area of the flower bed is 77 square feet
