stephanie spent half of her weekly allowance playing arcade games. To earn more money her parents let her clean the oven for $7. what is her weekly allowance if she ended with $12?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$10.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Stephanie's weekly allowance = x

She spent half of her weekly allowance playing arcade games = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Her parents let her clean the oven for = [tex]\frac{x}{2}+7[/tex].

She ended with $12

So the equation will be  [tex]\frac{x}{2}+7=12[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 12 - 7

[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 5

x = 5 × 2

x = 10 dollars

Her weekly allowance would be $10.00
