14 muffins is 2/5 of your muffins.

In total you had 5/5 muffins, which is 5/2 times more.

Hence you had 14*5/2=35 muffins !

Hence you have 35-14=21 left !

Find the total amount. Set up a proportion:

2/5/14 = 1/x

Cross multiply:

2/5x = 14

Divide 2/5 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 5/2:

x = 14 * 5/2

x = 70/2

x = 35

So the total amount of muffins is 35.

Now subtract this from the one's that blew away to find out how many are left.

35 - 14 = 21

So there are 21 muffins left.

Systems of linear equations iready quiz

Answer:

<h2>One solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is

<em>Does the following system have One Solution, No Solution, or Infinite Solutions.   </em>

<em />y = 4x + 8\\y = -5x + 3<em />

<em />

<em />

To solve this system, we just need to multiply the first equation by -1, and then sum those equations.

-y = -4x - 8\\y = -5x + 3

0=-9x-5\\5=-9x\\x=-\frac{5}{9}

Then, we use this value to find the other one

y=4x+8\\y=4(-\frac{5}{9} )+8\\y=-\frac{20}{9}+8\\y =\frac{-20+72}{9} \\y=\frac{52}{9}

As you can observe, the system of equations have a unique solution.

Therefore, the answer is one solution.

85% of all cars sold in chicago are some color other than black. if three hundred black cars were sold in chicago, how many cars
hram777 [196]
Of 85% of cars sold where not black then 100-85% where black = 15%
let the number of cars sold be y
then 15%*y=300
y= 300 divided by 15%
= (300*100)/15
=2000
therefore 2000 cars were sold

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that satisfies the following condition. slope 7, and passes through (5, 3
allsm [11]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = 7
(5,30)...x = 5 and y = 30
now we sub and find b, the y int
30 = 7(5) + b
30 = 35 + b
30 - 35 = b
-5 = b

so ur equation is : y = 7x - 5 <==
