To find out how many cupcakes JoJo decorates, we need to subtract 2 from the number of cupcakes that Darcy decorates.
Since Darcy decorates 8 cupcakes, we subtract 2 from this number:
8 - 2 = 6
So, JoJo decorates 6 cupcakes.

To find out how many cupcakes JoJo decorates, we need to subtract 2 from the number of cupcakes Darcy decorates. Darcy decorates 8 cupcakes which is 2 more than the number of cupcakes JoJo decorates.
So, the equation is: Darcy's cupcakes = JoJo's cupcakes + 2.
To solve for JoJo's cupcakes, we can rearrange the equation: JoJo's cupcakes = Darcy's cupcakes - 2.
Now we can substitute in the known value for Darcy's cupcakes, which is 8: JoJo's cupcakes = 8 - 2.
Calculating, we find that JoJo decorates 6 cupcakes. Therefore, the correct answer is 6.

To return to the initial temperature of 81°F, the temperature needs to fall by 4°F.
Since the temperature initially dropped 9°F and then rose 5°F, we can find the difference between the initial temperature and the final temperature by subtracting the rise of 5°F from the drop of 9°F:
9°F - 5°F = 4°F
Therefore, the temperature needs to fall by 4°F to return to the initial temperature of 81°F. So, the correct answer is Fall 4°F.

To divide two rational numbers, we multiply the first number by the reciprocal of the second number.
The reciprocal of a fraction a/b is b/a.
So, to divide -3/17 by -2/3, we can multiply -3/17 by -3/2.
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
(-3)(-3) / (17)(2) = 9 / 34
Therefore, the result of dividing -3/17 by -2/3 is 9/34. So, the correct answer is 9 over 34.

To find the product of two rational numbers, we multiply their numerators and denominators.
For 4/7 * (-20/2), we have:
(4 * -20) / (7 * 2) = -80 / 14
Simplifying the fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
(-80/2) / (14/2) = -40/7
Therefore, the product of 4/7 * (-20/2) is -40/7. So, the correct answer is negative 40 over 7.

I apologize for the confusion. Let's solve the problem again.
To find the product of two rational numbers, we multiply their numerators and denominators.
For 4/7 * (-20/2), we have:
(4 * -20) / (7 * 2) = (-80) / 14
Simplifying the fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
(-80/2) / (14/2) = -40/7
Therefore, the product of 4/7 * (-20/2) is -40/7. So, the correct answer is negative 40 over 7.

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To find the product of 4/7 and (-20/2), we need to multiply the numerators and the denominators:
(4 * -20) / (7 * 2) = -80 / 14
Next, we can simplify the fraction. The greatest common divisor of 80 and 14 is 2:
(-80/2) / (14/2) = -40/7
Therefore, the product of 4/7 * (-20/2) is -40/7. So, the correct answer is negative 40 over 7.

To find the product of two fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.
For 4/7 * (-20/2), we have:
(4 * -20) / (7 * 2) = -80 / 14
We can simplify this fraction further. The greatest common divisor of 80 and 14 is 2:
(-80/2) / (14/2) = -40/7
Therefore, the product of 4/7 * (-20/2) is -40/7. So, the correct answer is -40/7.

To find the distance from the basement floor to the roof, we subtract the elevation of the basement floor (-15 ft) from the elevation of the roof (37 ft).
37 ft - (-15 ft) = 37 ft + 15 ft = 52 ft
Therefore, the distance from the basement floor to the roof is 52 feet. So, the correct answer is 52 feet.
