Answer:

The estimated weight is in the range:

75.6 pounds Weight 92.4 pounds

Explanation:

Since, the maximum error is 10%.

Therefore, the maximum and minimum vales will be 10% more and 10% less than 84 pounds, respectively.

For Maximum Limit:

= (1.1)(84 pounds)

= 92.4 pounds

For Minimum Limit:

= (0.9)(84 pounds)

= 75.6 pounds

Hence, the estimated weight is in the range:

75.6 pounds Weight 92.4 pounds

hope this helps
