Final answer:

The question addresses the concept of ratios in mathematics, specifically that Deshawn plants 4 tomato plants for every 1 pepper plant. Without additional details on the average weight per plant, we cannot calculate the total weight of produce.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to ratio and proportion, a topic in mathematics. Deshawn plants 4 tomato plants for every 1 pepper plant. If we need to find out the 'weight' as mentioned in the question, the given information is not sufficient because weight typically refers to the mass of the tomatoes and peppers produced, rather than the ratio of plants. However, the ratio can be expressed as 4:1, meaning for every pepper plant, there are four tomato plants. To answer questions regarding the weight of the produce (in grams or any other unit), additional information about the average weight per plant would be necessary.

The rest of the information provided in the snippets seems to be unrelated to the question about Deshawn's garden plants ratio and does not provide context for calculating weight. They appear to be from different scenarios like international trade benefits for France and mechanical properties of a tomato in free fall.
