<u>Answer:</u>
x < 21.01 or x > 21.49 because |x - 21.25| > 0.24
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that each pack of almonds is targeted to weigh 21.25 oz.and a pack must weigh within 0.24 oz of the target weight to be accepted.
Assuming x to be the weight of a given pack of almonds, we can write it as:
Now finding the range of rejected masses (x) of the almonds.
or
or
Therefore, the correct answer option is x < 21.01 or x > 21.49 because |x - 21.25| > 0.24.
Concept: Solution of the given attachment is based on the addition of two vectors as given below.
Consider two vectors P and Q, then resultant of these two vectors is given as,
R = P + Q
To find the addition of G & H vectors. That is G + H =?
In the given figure;
Vector A = - Vector G because both are in opposite directions -----(i)
From the figure,
A + H = F --------------- using the given concept ---------(ii)
Now, shall replace the value of A from equation (i) in equation(ii)
- G + H = F
or, G + (- H) = - F
Since the vector addition of G & H is not equal to F.
Hence, the given statement G + H = F is False.
