Grant spent half of his weekly allowance. Then he earned $5 back by doing the dishes. What is his weekly allowance if he ended with $15?

Grant's weekly allowance is $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Grant ended with $15. We can say that Grant's weekly allowance is x.

x/2 + 5 = 15

Now to solve:

x/2 + 5 - 5 = 15 - 5 (subtract 5 from both sides to isolate the x/2)

x/2 = 10

x/2 * 2 = 10 * 2 (multiply both sides by 2 to isolate the x)

x = 20

Grant's weekly allowance is $20.

fahrenheit

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit is more precise than celsius. the ambient temperature on most of the inhabited world ranges from -20 degrees fahrenheit to 110 degrees fahrenheit—a 130-degree range. on the celsius scale, that range is from -28.8 degrees to 43.3 degrees—a 72.1-degree range. this means that you can get a more exact measurement of the air temperature using fahrenheit because it uses almost twice the scale.
