Antonio purchased a 13 ounce guinea pig. a year later, the guinea pig weighed 17 ounces. how does the initial weight of the guinea pig compare to the weight after a year? the guinea pig weighed 30 fewer ounces when antonio purchased him. the guinea pig weighed 4 more ounces when antonio purchased him. the guinea pig weighed 30 fewer ounces after a year. the guinea pig weighed 4 more ounces after a year.

The guinea pig weighed 4 more ounces after a year

Step-by-step explanation:

where;

Weight after 1 year=17 ounces

Initial weight purchased=13 ounces

Amount of weight the guinea pig gained=(17-13)=4 ounces

The guinea pig weighed 4 more ounces after a year
