Add 0.75 to both sides of this inequality, obtaining 0.5x > 4.0.
Then divide both sides by 0.5: x > 8 (answer)

Hello!

You can solve this like an algebraic expression

0.5x - 0.75 > 3.25

Add 0.75 to both sides

0.5x > 4

Divide both sides by 0.5

x > 8

The answer is any number greater than 8

Hope this helps!
