To find out how many cupcakes JoJo decorates, we need to solve the equation relating Darcy's cupcakes and JoJo's cupcakes.
We are given that Darcy decorates 8 cupcakes, which is 2 more than 1/3 of the number of cupcakes JoJo decorates.
Let's represent the number of cupcakes JoJo decorates as "x".
According to the given information, we can write the equation:
8 = (1/3)x + 2
To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.
First, let's subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:
8 - 2 = (1/3)x
6 = (1/3)x
To get rid of the fraction, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3:
3 * 6 = 3 * (1/3)x
18 = x
Therefore, JoJo decorates 18 cupcakes.

The product is positive if the signs of the factors are the same.
The product is negative if the signs of the factors are the same.
The sign of the product is always the
same as the larger factor.
The sign of the product is always the same as the smaller factor.

To find out how much the temperature needs to rise or fall to return to the initial temperature of 81 degrees F, let's break down the information given step by step.
Given:
Initial temperature: 81 degrees F
Temperature drop: 9 degrees F
Temperature rise: 5 degrees F
To find out the change in temperature to return to 81 degrees F, we need to consider both the temperature drop and the temperature rise.
First, we calculate the net change in temperature by subtracting the temperature drop from the temperature rise:
Net change = Temperature rise - Temperature drop
Net change = 5 - 9
Net change = -4
The net change is -4 degrees F, which means the temperature needs to fall 4 degrees to return to the initial temperature of 81 degrees F.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Fall 4 degrees.

Temperature rise: 5 degrees F

Net change = Temperature rise - Temperature drop
Net change = 5 - 9
Net change = -4
The net change is -4 degrees F, which means the temperature needs to fall 4 degrees to return to the initial temperature of 81 degrees F.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Fall 4 degrees.
