Scott spent half of his weekly allowance on music. To help him earn more money, his parents let him wash the car for $6.53. What is his weekly allowance if he ended with $12.03?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The weekly allowance of Scott = $11

Explanation:

Let the weekly allowance of Scott = $x

As given , weekly allowance at the end = $12.03

Also given, Scott spent half of his weekly allowance on music

⇒Scott spent on music = $[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Also given, his parents let him wash the car for $6.53

∴ we get

[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] + 6.53 = 12.03

⇒[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]  = 12.03 - 6.53

⇒[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]  = 5.5

⇒ x = 2×5.5

⇒x = 11

∴ The weekly allowance of Scott = $11

Answer:

Amount of weekly allowance = $11

Explanation:

Given:

Amount earn from washing = $6.53

End money = $12.03

Find:

Amount of weekly allowance

Computation:

Amount of weekly allowance = 2[End money - Amount earn from washing]

Amount of weekly allowance = 2[12.03 - 6.53]

Amount of weekly allowance = $11
