Asked by Wes
                I borrowed money from Joe.  I spent 5.50 of it on lunch, and half of the rest on a present.  To repay Joe, I borrowed 10.00 from Fred.  If i started and ended with no money, how much did I borrow from Joe?

    Let x = borrowed money.
x - 5.50 - .5(x-5.50) = 10
Solve for x.
    
x - 5.50 - .5(x-5.50) = 10
Solve for x.
