119 - ATPL - With regard to the drift down performance of the twin jet aeroplane, what is meant by 'equivalent gross weight at engine failure'?

Question 119 - Performance - ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot license

The increment represents fuel used before engine failure
The equivalent gross weight at engine failure is the actual gross weight corrected for OAT higher than ISA +10°C
The increment accounts for the higher fuel flow at higher temperatures
This gross weight accounts for the lower Mach number at higher temperatures
