Write an equation in the form that makes the most sense for the information given. Since the beginning of fall, the little tree in front of Mrs. Wenger's house loses 12 more leaves everyday. After 5 days, it had only 208 leaves remaining.

0 = 208 - 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since after 5 days the tree only had 208 leaves remaining, assuming that the rate of decay is constant, we can use the following equation to calculate the total number of days (starting at the 5-day mark as 0) until the tree loses all of its leaves. In this equation, the total number of days is represented by the variable x.

0 = 208 - 12x

Now that we have the equation we can solve it...

0 = 208 - 12x ... subtract 208 on both sides

-208 =  -12x   ... divide both sides by -12

17.33 = x

Finally, we can see that after 18 days (not 17.33 because we are counting full days) the tree will have lost all of its leaves.

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
