In this question, the first information that we get is that Kayla spent half of her weekly allowance in clothes. On cleaning the oven Kayla gets $4. Finally Kayla is left with $12.
Let us assume that the weekly allowance of Kayla = x
Amount of allowance saved after buying clothes = x/2
 Then we can go for the equation
x/2 + 4 = 12
x + (4 * 2) = 12 * 2
x + 8 = 24
x = 24 -8
   = 16
So we can now see that the weekly allowance of Kayla is $16

An Olympic diver jumps off of a platform that is 10 meters high. The diver goes 2 meters underwater after a dive. How far is it
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

12 meters far.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question translates to 10+2. The word problem states that the height of the platform is 10 meters. That means we can say that he'd have already traveled 10 meters down when he dived. And the problem also states that the diver goes two meters under the water, meaning that he had traveled 2 meters, in addition to the 10 meters. And so, we add the 10 and 2 to get 12 meters in total.

How do you simplify this equation
dezoksy [38]

\bf \cfrac{\quad2-\frac{4}{x+2} \quad }{5+\frac{10}{x+2}}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{LCD~of~x+2}{\frac{2(x+2)-4}{x+2}}}{\stackrel{LCD~of~x+2}{\frac{5(x+2)+10}{x+2}}}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{distributing}{\frac{2x+4-4}{x+2}}}{\stackrel{distributing}{\frac{5x+10+10}{x+2}}}\implies \cfrac{\quad\frac{2x}{x+2} \quad }{\frac{5x+20}{x+2}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{2x}{\underline{x+2}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{x+2}}{5x+20}\implies \cfrac{2x}{5x+20}\implies \cfrac{2x}{5(x+4)}
