OpenStudy (rizags):

OpenStudy (misty1212):

he paid \(4.50\) for the weight

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey :)

OpenStudy (misty1212):

divide that by \(.75\) to find out the weight

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 0.75+5=9.50

OpenStudy (misty1212):

\[4.50\div .75\] will get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

if you have to solve an equation find \[.75x+5=9.50\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
