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.

I don’t understand what I’m suppose to do. Can someone please help?
Ksju [112]

From the 64 values in the table on the left, count how many fall within the given ranges under the "classes" column in the table on the right. The "frequency" is the number of values in the data that belong to a given "class".

For example, "< -16.0" means "values below -16.0". Only one number satisfies this: -16.2 (first row, third column). So the frequency for this class is just 1.

Then for the range "-15.9 - 13.0", which probably means "numbers between 15.9 and -13.0, inclusive", the frequency is 0 because every number in the table is larger than the ones in this range.

And so on.

Polygon ABCD is a parallelogram, and m of abc =127°. The length of bc is 19 units, and an is 5 units. What is the perimeter of t
hjlf
The perimeter of a parallelgram is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.

Parallelogram ABCD has sides AB, BC, CD, and AB.

Sides AB and CD are parallel and of equal length = 19 units.

Sides BC and CD are parallel and of equal length. Assuming thi is the length of 5 units given in the statement, the perimeter of the parallelogram ABCD is: 19  units + 19 units + 5 units + 5 units = 48 units.

Please, inform if the length of 5 units corresponds to other distance, but even in that case, with this explanation you should be able to calculate the perimeter of this and other parallelograms.

Answer: 48 untis.

Line a passes through that point (-8,-7) and has a slope of 5/8. Choose the equation that best represents A
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

y = 5/8 x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the slope of the line, m=5/8, which passes through the point (-8,-7).

Let the equation of the line be y=mx+c

where m is the slope of the line and c is a constant.

As m=5/8, so the equation of line become

y= 5/8x+c

As the line passes through the point (-8,-7), so putting y= -7 and x= -8, we have

-7 = 5/8(-8)+c

-7 = -5 + c

c= -7 + 5

c= -2

On putting the value of c, the equation of line become

y=5/8 x -2

Hence, the equation of the line is y = 5/8 x -2.

Sales at a book store increased from 5000 to 10000. This year sales dicreased to 5000 from 10000.
erastovalidia [21]
It's basically 5,000*2=10,000
 and 10,000/2=5,000. your answer would be either they multiplied 5,000 by 2 and 10,000 divided by 2, they increased the sales by 5,000
