Ashley spent half of her weekly allowance at the movies. To earn extra money, Ashley’s parents let her clean the house windows for $8. What is Ashley’s weekly allowance if she endedupwith$14?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you make an equation-

Since she spent half of her allowance at the movies it should start with x/2. Then you add the extra money she made. This should equal $14.

Equation: x/2 + 8 = 14

Solve

x/2 + 8 = 14

Subtract 8 from both sides

x/2 = 6

Multiply each side by 2.

x= 12
