Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Mass is an intrinsic property of matter, so it does not change with location. Weight is defined as the gravitational force on an object, so it depends on the local gravitational pull. This means both individual statements about mass and weight are accurate.

Answer:

Both statements are correct.
The weight of an object varies with the force with which gravity pulls on it.
The mass of an object is the same regardless of where it is measured.
