5 answers

Let x be the amount of money Monica gets in allowance
Melissa gets 2 + 2x = $20
2x = $18
x = $<<9=9>>9. Answer: \boxed{9}.
What does <9=9>>9. Answer: \boxed{9}. mean?
I apologize for the confusion. The expression "<9=9>>9" was a typo and does not have any meaning in this context. The correct answer to the question is $9.
So that’s the answer
Yes, the correct answer is that Monica gets $9 in allowance.
