Question About External Links & No-Follows On A Blog

Hi, I just started at a new agency and noticed a blog that we published to our site had 17 external links. This seemed like a lot so I wanted to know how many would be considered too many external links on a blog post?

Next, due to an SEO quake plugin I noticed three of the 17 external links were nofollows.

I looked into the page authority and domain authority of the URL's and one of the nofollow links had a decent DA of 87 (Moz) while the follow links had around (37). Is this typically something that you would consider when choosing which to make a nofollow?

Lastly, there were two domains that were listed in the first paragraph as follow external links. In the following paragraph those two same domains (but diff URLs) were linked as nofollow external links.

I wanted to know is that confusing Google in any way? Are you showing that you may not trust those sources?

Thanks!
