<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

the ratio of pennies to quarters in a piggy bank is 14:3. if there are 51 quarters in the bank, how many pennies are there
malfutka [58]

The number of pennies in bank is 42

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that ratio of pennies to quarters in a piggy bank is 14 : 3

Let 14x be the number of pennies in piggy bank

Let 3x be the number of quarters in piggy bank

<em><u>To find: number of pennies</u></em>

Given that there are 51 quarters

number of pennies in piggy bank + number of quarters in piggy bank = 51

14x + 3x = 51

17x = 51

x = 3

number of pennies = 14x = 14(3) = 42

Thus the number of pennies in bank is 42
