If he ate 4 of them, but it means he ate 2/5 muffins,
4 muffins = 2/5 muffins
You substitute x muffins for how much muffins she baked in all -
2/5* x muffins = 4
2/5 multiply by 2/5 to cross it out. Do the same to the other side.
x= 4 *5/2
x = 10 muffins
So there were 10 muffins in all

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The quantity of water drain after x min is 50 $(0.9)^{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Total capacity of rain barrel = 50 gallon

The rate of drain = 10 gallon per minutes

Let The quantity of water drain after x min = y

Now, according to question

The quantity of water drain after x min = Initial quantity of water × $(1-\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm time}$

I.e The quantity of water drain after x min = 50 gallon × $(1-\dfrac{\textrm 10}{100})^{\textrm x}$

or, The quantity of water drain after x min = 50 gallon × $(0.9)^{x}$

Hence the quantity of water drain after x min is 50 $(0.9)^{x}$ Answer
