$15.00 is the total amount of money Jamal has right? To find the remaining amount of money Jamal has subtract 15 - 7.5 (price of nachos) = 7.5 (remaining amount of money Jamal has.) Now for part 2, since the sour straws are $1.50 each you just have to multiply X to get close as close to the remaining amount of money as possible.
1.50× 5 (amount of sour straws) is equal to 7.50 (price of 5 sour straws).
To check your answer let's add the price of nachos (7.50) and 5 sour straws (7.50) which is 15.00 the total amount Jamal brought with him.

Using the rectangular route Mike rides 12 miles. If he rides diagonally the distance is √2²+10²=√4+100=√104.
The difference between the two routes is 12-√104=1.80 miles approximately.
Quotient means division....less then means subtract
(y/2) - 5
