3 0

Helen should of put 0 first, because if you're gonna divide, you need to put the product first, then one of the factoes.

So instead it should be 0÷(-7)=0

What is equivalent to 31/50 in fraction form

tigry1 [53]

$\frac{31}{50} = \frac{31}{50} \times \frac{2}{2} =\boxed{\bf{ \frac{62}{100} }}$

62/100 is equivalent to 31/50.

In how many ways can you spell the word ROOM in the grid below? You can start on any letter R, then on each step you can step on

Zina [86]

Answer:

84? Not sure but pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

In a straight line, the word can only be spelled on the diagonals, and there are only two diagonals in each direction that have 2 O's.

If 90° and reflex turns are allowed, then the number substantially increases.

Corner R: can only go to the adjacent diagonal O, and from there to one other O, then to any of the 3 M's, for a total of 3 paths.

2nd R from the left: can go to either of two O's, one of which is the same corner O as above. So it has the same 3 paths. The center O can go to any of 4 Os that are adjacent to an M, for a total of 10 more paths. That's 13 paths from the 2nd R.

Middle R can go the three O's on the adjacent row, so can access the three paths available from each corner O along with the 10 paths available from the center O, for a total of 16 paths.

Then paths accessible from the top row of R's are 3 +10 +16 +10 +3 = 42 paths. There are two such rows of R's so a total of 84 paths.

3. NASA launched the Voyager spacecraft with a mission to observe Jupiter and Saturn. In 1990,

makkiz [27]

The linear function that calculates the expected distance from the sun of the Voyager-2 spacecraft in x years after 1990 is given by:

y = 3.3x + 30.6.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem, we have that the distance increases 33 AU each 10 years, hence the slope is given by:

m = 33/10 = 3.3.

Hence:

y = 3.3x + b.

When x = 28, y = 123, hence we use it to find b as follows:

123 = 3.3(28) + b

b = 30.6.

Hence equation to calculate the expected distance from the sun of the Voyager-2 spacecraft in x years after 1990 is given by:

y = 3.3x + 30.6.

3 3/4 -1 3/14 in simpilist form

lakkis [162]

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

$3 \frac {3} {4} -1 \frac {3} {14} =$

To do this, we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:

$\frac {4 * 3 + 3} {4} - \frac {14 * 1 + 3} {14} =\\\frac {15} {4} - \frac {17} {14} =\\\frac {14 * 15-4 * 17} {4 * 14} =\\\frac {210-68} {56} =\\\frac {142} {56} =\\\frac {71} {28} =\\2 \frac {15} {28}$
