Answer:
850 leaves were on the tree initially.
Same as;
2/5 + 1/5 + 3/10 + (remaining leaves 1/10) = 1
4/10 + 2/10 + 3/10 + 1/10
10 x 85 = 850
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 wk 1 fall off
1/5 wk 2 fell off
3/5 x 1/2 = 3/10 wk 2 stayed on tree
1/3 x 3/10 = 1/10 wk 3 stayed on
2/5 + 1/5 + 3/10 = 9/10 = 0.9 fall off in total
10/10 - 9/10 = 1/10 left on tree
1/10 = 85
10 x 85 = 850 leaves.
Answer:
30%, or 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 20 total marbles, and 6 of them are red, to find the probability of pulling a red marble you would do 6/20, which simplifies to 1/3. This can also be written as 30%.

The slope intercept form is y = me+b
Let Mary's age be x.
Paul is three times as old as Mary, so Paul's age would be 3x.
Peter is four times as old as Mary, so Peter's age would be 4x.
The sum of their ages is 64
⇒ Paul's age+ Peter's age+ Mary's age= 64
⇒ 3x+ 4x+ x= 64
⇒ 8x= 64
⇒ x= 64/8
⇒ x= 8
Paul's age is: 3x= 3*8= 24
Peter's age is: 4x= 4*8= 32
Final answer: Paul is 24 years old.
Peter is 32 years old.
Mary is 8 years old.

Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x + 5) = 9x + 4x − 34
4x + 20 = 9x + 4x − 34 [Distributive]
4x + 20 = 13x − 34 {Combine Like Terms]
4x - 13x + 20 = 13x - 13x − 34 [Subtractive: -13x both sides]
-5x + 20 = - 34 [Combine Like Terms]
-5x + 20 - 20 = -34 - 20 [Subtractive: - 20 both sides]
-5x = -54 [Combine Like Terms]
x = -54/-5 [Division Property: divide both sides by -5]
x = - 10 4/5
