Answer: $18.34

Step-by-step explanation: the first step is to find out how much money she had before she bought the hair clip so you would need to add $7.99 and $29.33 and I got $37.32, after that you need to subtract your starting amount of money ($18.98) from $37.32 and I got 18.34 so you received $18.98 from your grandma.

To find out how much money your grandma gave you, we can subtract the amount you spent on the hair clip and the remaining money you have from the total amount your friend gave you for your birthday.

Given:
Amount given by your friend = $18.98
Amount left after buying a hair clip = $29.33
Cost of the hair clip = $7.99

Let's calculate how much money your grandma gave you:

Total amount given by your friend and grandma = Amount left + Cost of the hair clip
Total amount given = $29.33 + $7.99
Total amount given = $37.32

Now, to find out how much money your grandma gave you, we subtract the amount given by your friend:

Amount given by your grandma = Total amount given - Amount given by your friend
Amount given by your grandma = $37.32 - $18.98
Amount given by your grandma = $18.34

Therefore, your grandma gave you $18.34 for your birthday.
