Question 1054774: Dovonte spent $6 on glass ships and $4 on markers at the craft store. His dad gave him $5. Then Dovonte had $7. How much money did Dovonte have when he arrived at the craft store? Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! he had 12 when he arrived at the store.
he spent 10 which left him with 2.
his dad gave him 5 which left him with 7.
if you let x equal the amount he had when he arrived at the store, you get x - 4 - 6 + 5 = 7
simplify to get x - 5 = 7
add 5 to both sides of this equation to get x = 12.
x represents the amount he had when he arrived at the craft store.
