so, they already used 4,885.78 this month, but whatever all five family members can use total for a month is 7,250.50, so since they already used 4,885.78, they have left 7,250.50 - 4,885.78 = 2364.72.
For number 1, theat is not a right triangle as a squared plus b squared does not equal c squared
We we are asked to solve this kind of problem we are asked to find the value of the value (x in this case). So the first thing we want to do isolate x by subtracting 5/12 from both sides.
x+5/12-5/12=5/8-5/12
Simplify
x=5/8-5/12
Reduce
x=3/3(5/8)-2/2(5/12)
x=15/24-10/24
x=5/24
The chef will be able to prepare 3 servings of pasta because if you take one away from a whole number you have 9/10ths so you do that process again you have 2 servings but, you have 2 tenths left over so you add that to the 7 tenths.
Hope this helps :)
