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.

Use f (x)=7 and g (x)=x+5 to evaluate (f+g)(3)=
dangina [55]
(f+g)(3)=f(3)+g(3)

f(x)=7 so f(3)=7
g(x)=x+5 so g(3)=3+5=8

(f+g)(3)=f(3)+g(3)=7+8=15

Substitute the given values into the formula, and solve for the unknown variable.
Alla [95]

Answer:

h=\frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A=\frac{1}{2h} (B+b)\\

A=21, B=2, b=5 ,h= ?

We have to find the value of  'h'

So, putting the given values in the equation to find the value of 'h'.

          A=\frac{1}{2h} (B+b)

Implementing the given values in the given equations:

         

                              21=\frac{1}{2h}(2+5)\\\\ 21=\frac{1}{2h} (7)\\\\\frac{1}{2h}=\frac{21}{7}\\\\  \frac{1}{2h}=3 \\\\h=\frac{1}{6}

So, the value of 'h' is

                       h=\frac{1}{6}

Suppose you are conducting a survey regarding activity level of children in the LA school district. you obtain a cluster sample
loris [4]
<span>The survey had a sample and response bias. The survey only randomly selected sophomore students, when it needed to be a thorough survey of children in the LA school district, so the sample size is neither large enough or relevant. Secondly, because the survey was administered by the parents of the students, the students surveyed will be more likely to over-report their activity level.</span>
