Answer:
To remove the "dead-weight phrase" in the sentence: "It has been found that most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make," it can be rewritten as follows:
"Most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make."
Explanation:
A dead-weight phrase is one that is not helpful in a sentence to convey the intended meaning. This implies that the meaning can still be picked up without the phrase. For example, the phrase: "it has been found that" is not necessary in the sentence. The meaning of the sentence is conveniently conveyed with its omission. The meaning is not lost if the sentence is rewritten as "Most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make."
Generally, a dead-weight is an unnecessary burden that can be jettisoned to make a load lighter. Also an unhelpful person can be considered as a dead-weight.

shes wrong dont listen to her its c
<span>The question is asking us to re-write the sentence "Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was won by him last weekend. " The options are the following: 1) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race had been won by him last weekend. - there is no need for the past perfect, as the first sentence is in a present tense 2) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and he won the race last weekend. - this is the best option, there is no problem with it; 3)Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and he win the race last weekend. i - this is grammatically wrong as we need a past tense in the last part; 4) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was win by him last weekend - this is also wrong as you would have to say "was won"</span>
