<h2>Answer: </h2>

26=2L+2W

L=W+3

<h2>Step-by-step explanation: </h2>

Let,

L be the length of the rectangle

W be the width of the rectangle

As Tamara will use the ribbon for the border of rectangle, this means we need the perimeter of rectangle.

Perimeter is given as :

P=2L+2W

As Tamara is using 26 inches of ribbon so perimeter is 26.

Equation becomes,

26=2L+2W  ..........(1)

Tamara wants the length to be 3 inches greater than the width, so equation becomes:

L=W+3   ..........(2)

Substituting equation 2 in equation 1:

26=2(W+3)+2W

=>26=2W+6+2W

=>4W=26-6

W=5 inches.

And,

L=W+3

= 5+3=8 inches

Therefore, we can say that the system of equations used are :

26=2L+2W

L=W+3

P = 2(L + W)
L = W + 3
these would be ur equations...and u would sub in 26 for P

When Mrs. Stewart makes pie dough, she uses 2/3 cup of shortening for every 2 1/2 cups of flour which proportion could be used t
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The amount of flour Mrs.Stewart needs for 5 cups of shortening =\frac{75}{4} =18\tfrac{3}{4} cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs.Stewart pie dough needs  \frac{2}{3} cups of shortening for 2\tfrac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{2} cups of flour.

Now we assume that the shortening needed for x cups of flour is y cups.

Accordingly we can arrange the ratios.

So for one cup of shortening how many cups of flour is needed we have to use the unitary method:

\frac{cups\ of flour\ (x)}{cups\ of\ shortening\ (y)} =\frac{x}{y} =\frac{5/2}{2/3}

Plugging the value of y=5 as it is number of cups of shortening Mrs.Stewart have used.

And multiplying both sides with 5.

Number of cups of flour needed when 5 cups of shortenings are used (x) =\frac{x}{y} =\frac{5/2}{2/3}.

So, (x)=\frac{5\times 3\times 5}{2\times 2} =\frac{75}{4} = 18\tfrac{3}{4}

The amount of floor Mrs.Stewart needed for 5 cups of shortening = 18\tfrac{3}{4}\ cups of floor.
