This is the concept of algebra, to calculate the proportion of wool in each item we proceed as follows;
Let the amount of wool used for hat be x
amount of wool in sweater will be 5x
the amount of wool used in scarf will be x-5
 therefore the total amount of wool will be:
x+5x+(x-5)=550
x+5x+x-5=550
7x-5=550
7x=550+5
7x=555
hence;
x=555/7
x=79
the amount used in hat x=79g
amount used in sweater 5x=395g
amount used in scarf=79-5=74g

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation k and write the equation
nydimaria [60]

y/x = k

6.4/4 = 1.6

11.2 / 7 =1.6

16/10 = 1.6

20.8 /13 =1.6


This is a direct variation and the constant is 1.6

y=1.6x

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

-85

Explanation:

Given the mathematical expression:

-18+(-67)

First, we recall the product of signs.

+\times-=-

So, first, we open the bracket:

-18+(-67)=-18-67

We then simplify:

=-85

The result is -85.
