Hi so have you heard of KFC?  It stands for keep flip change.  You use it when adding or subtracting or when you're dividing fractions.  So you keep the first part of the problem the same; you flip the sign of the second part, and change the sign of the third part.  So -23.9- -9.3 becomes -23.9 + +9.3.  So take away 9.3 from 23.9 and get 14.6.  Whenever you add a positive to a negative like we do here, the answer will become a smaller negative number if the positive number is "smaller" than the negative number.

Johnny and Cage are working together to mold figurines for a craft fair. They already have 8 figurines which were left from the
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial = 8

Increment = 3 (every hour)

Required

Explain why it is linear

First, we need to determine the equation that represents the scenario

Let x be the number of hours worked and y be the number of figurines at x hours.

The equation is determined as follows:

y = Initial\ Figurines + Increment * x

This gives:

y = 8 + 3 * x

y = 8 + 3x

Reorder

y = 3x + 8

A linear equation is of the form

y = mx + b

By comparison,

y = mx + b is equivalent to y = 3x + 8

<em>Hence, we can conclude that the situation is linear</em>

E varies directly with G. When G is 6, E is 10. Find the value of G when E is 18.
sasho [114]

Answer:

  10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

E has increased by a factor of 18/10 = 1.8, so G will increase by that factor. The corresponding value of G is ...

  6 × 1.8 = 10.8 = G

__

If you like, you can write an equation relating G to E:

  E = kG

  10 = k(6)

  k = 10/6 = 5/3

Now for E = 18, we have ...

  18 = (5/3)G

  18(3/5) = G = 10.8

Fred the clown can create 17 animal balloons every 15 minutes.
erma4kov [3.2K]
If Fred can create 17 animal balloons every 15 minutes, we divide 17/15 to get what he does every minute! So now we multiply (17/15)*30 and that equals 34. If we do the same for 60 minutes ((17/15)*60), it gives us 68! Hope this helped! Brainliest is always appreciated.

Kelly orders T-shirts and sweaters from a clothing company. she buys them at the prices and quantities that are shown in the tab
HACTEHA [7]
Well, to solve this you would divide 659 by 100 since that is the cost of 100 T-shirts, but you only need one. That means that one T-shirt costs $6.59. Then you would divide 600 by 50, which is 13.18, for the same reason. Then you subtract 13.18 from 6.59. (13.18-6.59) which would be 6.59. So the answer is 6.59
