Weight of an grapefruit=weight of an orange+8% weight of an orange
weight of an apple=weight of an orange -10% weight of an orange

a.<span>By what percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
We should find the connection between grapefruit and an apple. We know the connection between the weight of a grapefruit and an orange, we know the connection between an orange and an apple, so this means we know the connection between a grapefruit and an apple.
</span>
weight of an grapefruit=weight of an <span>orange+8% weight of an orange
</span>weight of an orange=weight of an apple<span> +10% weight of an apple
</span>
-> weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple + 8%(weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple)= weight of an apple + 18% weight of an apple + 2% weight of an apple= <span>weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple 

</span><span>b.By what percentage is the apple lighter than the grapefruit?
</span>weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple<span> 
</span>
-> The apple ts 20% lighter than the grapefruit.

The value of f(h(2)) =2 and h(f(16))= 14

<h3>What is function?</h3>

Functions are the fundamental part of the calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input . Mapping or transformation is used to denote a function in math. These functions are usually denoted by letters . The domain is defined as the set of all the values that the function can input while it can be defined. The range is all the values that come out as the output of the function involved.

given:

f(x)= √x-1 , h(x)= x² + 5

Now,

f(h(2))= f( (2)² +5 )

=f(4+5)

=f(9)

=√9-1

= 3-1

=2

h(f(16)) = h( √16-1)

=h( 4-1)

=h(3)

=3² + 5

=9+5

=14

Answer:

X = 21/4 - 7/4 = 14/4 = 7/2 = 3 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

X + (2 and 1/2) - 3/4 = 5 and 1/4

X + 2 and 2/4  - 3/4 = 5 and 1/4  <--- common denominator

X + 10/4 - 3/4 = 21/4

X + 7/4 = 21/4

X = 21/4 - 7/4 = 14/4 = 7/2 = 3 and 1/2
