Answer:
Option D is correct.
This statement shows the use of relative difference.
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking each of the answer choices one at a time
- Absolute Change
This expresses the exact value of alterations or modifications that happen to a particular quantity. It gives exactly how much the value of the same quantity has changed at different times or conditions. The statement in this question compares two different quantities (price of new CD burner at two different stores), hence it doesn't give the absolute change.
- Absolute Difference
This expresses the exact value of the difference between two quantities. The statement in the question on its own cannot give us the absolute value of the difference between the cost of new CD burner at the two stores being compared. Hence, this isn't the correct answer.
- Relative Change
Thìs expresses how much a particular quantity has changed with respect to its value at some other period of time or under some other condition(s). The question in this statement compares two different quantities and isn't the right answer.
- Relative Difference
This expresses the difference between two quantities wit respect to or relative to one of the two quantities being compared. This is exactly what the statement in the question expresses by saying that the new CD burner costs 12% less at the new electronics store.
It compares the telative difference of the new CD burner at the new and old electronics store.
Hope this Helps!!!
