anjali spent half of her weekly allowance at the movies. to earn more money her parents let her clean the windows in the house for $5. What is her weekly allowance if she ended with $8?
Let her entire weekly allowance be x ∴[tex] \frac{x}{2} + $5= $8
[/tex] [tex] \frac{x+10}{2} =8[/tex] cross multiply [tex]x+10=16[/tex] ∴[tex]x=$6[/tex]
