<h2>Answer: </h2>

I will use 6 cups of oats and 1 cup of honey to make 12 cups of granula .

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

Let x be the number of cups of oats and let y be the number of cups of honey. Given statement can be expressed in fractions as

½ x / ¼ y = 12

4x/2y = 12

2x/y = 12

x/y = 12/2 = 6/1

x=6, y=1

Therefore number of cups of oats = x = 6 cups

Number of cups of honey = y = 1 cup

You design a tree house using a coordinate plane in which the coordinates are measured in feet. The vertices of the floor are (-

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Perimeter = 28 yards

Area = 49 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance formula:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Let as consider the vertices of the floor are A(-2,-3), B(-2,4), C(5,4) and D(5,-3).

Using distance formula, we get

$AB=\sqrt{(-2-(-2))^2+(4-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{(-2+2)^2+(4+3)^2}=\sqrt{0+7}^2=7$

Similarly,

$BC=\sqrt{(5-(-2))^2+(4-4)^2}=7$

$CD=\sqrt{(5-5)^2+(4-(-3))^2}=7$

$AD=\sqrt{(5-(-2))^2+(-3-(-3))^2}=7$

It is conclude that, $AB=BC=CD=AD$ .

From the given points it is clear that all sides lie on either vertical or horizontal lines.

Since all sides are equal, and adjacent sides are perpendicular, therefore, the base is a square with edge 7 yards.

Perimeter of square floor is

$P=4a=4(7)=28\text{ yards}$

Area of square floor is

$A=a^2=7^2=49\text{ sq. yards}$

Therefore, the perimeter is 28 yards and the area is 49 square yards.

The function h(x) is defined as shown.

pav-90 [236]

1. For x<3, h(x)=x+2

now x+2 is an increasing line (a practical way to check, h(1)=3, h(2)=4)

the largest value it takes is at 3, not inclusive, so h(3)=5 not inclusive.

Range_1= (-∞, 5)

2. for x> or equal to 3, h(x)=-x+8, which is a decreasing line (check h(4)=4, h(5)=3 )

so this line takes its maximal value at x=3, f(3)=5 and then takes any other value to -∞.

Range_2=(-∞,5]

3. Range(h)=Range1∪Range2=(-∞, 5)∪(-∞,5]=(-∞,5] (B)

The inverse variation equation shows the relationship between wavelength in meters, x, and frequency, y.

Dmitrij [34]

The relationship between wavelength and frequency is expressed by the equation λν=c where λ is the wavelength, v is the frequency and c is the speed of light which has a value of 3x10^8 m/s.

λν=c
λ(3 × 10^9)= 3x10^8
λ = 0.1 m

Hope this answers the question.
