I apologize for the incorrect response. Let me re-evaluate the equation.
To interpret the meaning of the solution in the context of the problem 12(x+5)=45, we will first solve the equation.
12(x+5)=45
Divide both sides of the equation by 12:
x+5=3.75
Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:
x= -1.25
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x= -1.25.
In the context of the problem, this means that Riley's monthly allowance is negative $1.25. However, this doesn't make sense. It is possible that there is an error in the problem or equation stated, as a negative monthly allowance would not be practical or realistic.
