Answer:
c. Going to the mall if that is what you liked best.
Explanation:
When evaluating the opportunity cost of any move or event we consider the alternate option that was not taken because the other opportunity was chosen ahead of it. Here, the action that was chosen was going to the movies and the opportunity cost of going to the movies would be what they liked or valued the most. Option c states that going to the mall if that is what you liked best and if they liked it best or most then it was most valued or preferred and therefore will be the opportunity cost of going to the movies.

Answer:
1. a. Our nation's founders based their new government on old ideas.
This answer is correct because all other options are merely points made but not the primary subject of the paragraph. The passage is not focused on options b, c, or d.
2. c. Our democratic republic has ancient Greek and Roman roots.
This answer seems to be correct. The passage does explain that our nation's founders based their new government ideas on old ideas that primarily came from Rome and Greece.
3. d. Government is created to serve the people.
In my opinion, this option is the correct answer. According to the passage, the citizens were the one's to elect the representatives and what not. It does not mention much of the government protecting its people or making sure they had the strongest leader. The paragraph also does not mention the government keeping countries safe from war.
