Marie and Jorge are both trying to lose weight. After 3 months they compared their weight loss. Marie's weight went from 175 to 150. Jorge's weight went from 190 to 180. Which statements are true regarding their weight loss? Select three options. Jorge's weight change was approximately 5%. Marie's weight change was approximately 14%. Marie had the greater percent change. Jorge had the greater percent change. Marie's weight change was approximately 1.4%.

The accurate statements are:

Jorge's weight change was approximately 5%.

Marie's weight change was approximately 14%

. Marie had the greater percent change.

percentage decrease in each person's weight has to be determined:

Percentage decrease =[ (new weight / old weight) -1 ] x 100

The percentage decrease in Marie's weight = (150 / 175) - 1 = 14%

The percentage decrease in Jorge's weight = (180 / 190) - 1 = 5%

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

Marie's former weight = 175

New weight = 150

Difference = 175 - 150 = 25

Percentage change = 25/175 × 100

= 1/7 × 100

= 14.2%

Jorge's former weight = 190

Jorge's new weight = 180

Difference = 190 - 180 = 10

Percentage change = 10/190 × 100

= 5.26%

From the above solving, the following are right

• Jorge's weight change was approximately 5%.

• Marie's weight change was approximately 14%

• Marie had the greater percent change.

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
