Respuesta :

Answer:

Equation: x + 10 = 28

He originally had $14 in his wallet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original money he had in his wallet.

His grandmother gave him $10 and he now has $28 in his wallet implies:

x + 10 = 28

x = 28 - 14

x = 14

He originally had $14 in his wallet.
