Question

question 8 a supplier wants to make a profit by buying metal by weight at one altitude and selling it at the same price per pound at another altitude. the supplier should o disregard altitude because it makes no difference. o buy at a low altitude and sell at a high altitude. o buy at a high altitude and sell at a low altitude.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Weight is affected by gravity which varies with altitude. At higher altitudes, the gravitational force is slightly weaker, so an object has a lower weight. A supplier should buy at a high - altitude (where the metal weighs less for the same mass) and sell at a low - altitude (where the same metal weighs more for the same mass) to make a profit when selling by weight at the same price per pound.

Answer:

buy at a high altitude and sell at a low altitude.
