Answer:

d. gain weight

Step-by-step explanation:

To lose weight, you need to burn more calories than you are taking in. Therefore, she would be consuming 14,000 calories by the end of the week, assuming 7 days, but only burn 8,400 calories, thus she'll gain the weight, rather than lose it.

hope this helps !!
