Represent the speed of the first plane by f and that of the second plane by s.
Then 4f+4s = 3800 miles, or f+s = 950 miles.  Thus, f + (f + 80) = 950, so that
2f = 870, and f = 435 mph.  Then s = (435+80)mph, or 515 mph.

The first plane flew at 435 mph and the second at 515 mph.

Check:  (4 hours)(435 mph) + (4 hours)(515 mph) = 3800 mi (as expected)

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
n200080 [17]

Answer:

She will use the ratio shortening to flour as 4 : 15

Step-by-step explanation:

When Mrs. Stewart makes pie dough, she uses \dfrac{2}{3} cups of shortening for every 2\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{5}{2} cups of flour.

So, for each \dfrac{2}{3} cup of shortening she uses \dfrac{5}{2} cups of flour.

Then, the ratio of shortening to flour in the mixture of pie dough will be  

\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3} }{\dfrac{5}{2} } = \dfrac{4}{15} i.e. 4 : 15.

Therefore, she will use the ratio shortening to flour as 4 : 15 to find the amount of flour she needs when she uses 5 cups of shortening. (Answer)
