D
the answer is D. dilation cannot be used to prove this
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 answer is (108) i hope it works
There are two answers:
B) 5
C) 8
==============================================
Explanation:
If we had a triangle with sides a, b and c, then we can say
b-a < c < b+a
where b is larger than 'a'. This is the triangle inequality theorem
In this case, a = 5 and b = 9 so,
b-a < c < b+a
9-5 < c < 9+5
4 < c < 14
Telling us that c is some number between 4 and 14, not including either endpoint. If c is a whole number, then c could be any value from this set: {5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13}
We see that the numbers 5 and 8 are in this set. The values 3 and 15 are not in the set.
