for earth day, the environmental club tracked the number of seeds planted by its members. planting seeds in the garden how many members are there in all? \boxed{} members

Explanation:

Step1: Count seeds at 0

Count the number of 'x' at 0: 6 (since there are 6 x's at the 0 mark).

Step2: Count seeds at 1

Count the number of 'x' at 1: 5 (5 x's at the 1 mark).

Step3: Count seeds at 2

Count the number of 'x' at 2: 8 (8 x's at the 2 mark).

Step4: Count seeds at 3

Count the number of 'x' at 3: 4 (4 x's at the 3 mark).

Step5: Count seeds at 4

Count the number of 'x' at 4: 8 (8 x's at the 4 mark).

Step6: Count seeds at 5

Count the number of 'x' at 5: 2 (2 x's at the 5 mark).

Step7: Sum all counts

Add the counts: \(6 + 5 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 2\)
First, \(6 + 5 = 11\), then \(11 + 8 = 19\), then \(19 + 4 = 23\), then \(23 + 8 = 31\), then \(31 + 2 = 33\).

Answer:

33
