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.

The sum of the measures of two adjacent angles is 72 degrees. The ratio of the smaller angle to the

Goryan [66]

Answer:

The larger angle is 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the angles be: θ and α where

θ > α

Sum = 72

α : θ = 1 : 3

Required

Determine the larger angle

First, we get the proportion of the larger angle (from the ratio)

The sum of the ratio is 1 + 3 = 4

So, the proportion of the larger angle is ¾.

Its value is then calculated as:.

θ = Proportion * Sum

θ = ¾ * 72°

θ = 3 * 18°

θ = 54°
