wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the expression step by step:
1/2(9 − 70) + (-29) * 0
First, simplify 9 − 70:
1/2(-61) + (-29) * 0
Then, simplify -61 divided by 2:
-61/2 + (-29) * 0
Since any number multiplied by 0 is always 0, we can simplify the second term:
-61/2 + 0
Lastly, we add -61/2 + 0:
-61/2
So, the equivalent expression is -61/2.

-61/2
So, the equivalent expression is -61/2.
