Answer:

<h2>The answer is 15 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(5, -5) and (-7,4)

The distance between them is

$d = \sqrt{ ({5 + 7})^{2} + ({ - 5 - 4})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} + ( { - 9})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{144 + 81} \\ = \sqrt{225} \\ = 15 \: \: \: \: \: \:$

We have the final answer as

<h3>15 units</h3>

The initial weight is given by:
$1 \frac{1}{4} = 1.25
$
Then, we add a second weight:
$\frac{1}{2} = 0.5
$
Finally, we add a third weight:
$\frac{3}{4} = 0.75
$
Adding the three added weights, we can find the total weight.
We have then:
$1.25 + 0.5 + 0.75 = 2.5
$
The total weight is:
$2.5 = 2 \frac{1}{2} 
$
Answer:
