Answer:

a. The agreement will be discharged due to true impossibility.

Explanation:

Since in the question, it is given that Baldrick was hired for three nights per week for an entire year. Due to food poisoning, he dies after nine months of agreement.  

So, it is a contract in which two parties are involved which bound them to perform their dues and responsibilities.  

Since he died so automatically the contract lapse because of true reasons or impossibility  as it is impossible to fulfill the contract.

Hence, option A is correct.

An Uber driver faces costs for driving that include sunk costs like insurance that contribute to the average cost per mile of $.
crimeas [40]

Answer: sunk costs don't increase as driving increases.

Explanation: sunk costs are irrelevant costs because they have already occured in the past and cannot be avoided. Sunk costs thus do not differ between alternatives, and are unavoidable. The calculation for insurance and other sunk costs are likely not based on the amount of rides the Uber picks up, but rather calculated at a constant rate. So regardless of whether or not the rider pays more or less than the $.50 on the insurance, this will not have any effect on the insurance that is constant and has likely already been paid out.
