Answer 1

Answer options:

a. partly successful.

b. partly unsuccessful.

c. totally successful.

d. totally unsuccessful.

Answer:

D) totally unsuccessful.

Explanation:

Since Sari ratified the contract that Rolf made with Tige, then she should not try to rescind it because Tige can enforce it. Sari had the chance to void the contract, but instead she voluntarily decided to ratify it, and by doing so she expressly agreed to perform her part (which is paying for it).

Answer 2

Group of answer choices:

A) partly successful

B) partly unsuccessful

C) totally successful

D) totally unsuccessful

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": totally unsuccessful.

Explanation:

Even if Rolf hired Tige without consulting Sari, Sari ratified the contract which makes it completely legal under the terms Rolf and Tige agreed, implying in the case, painting Sari's house interior and exterior. Therefore, if Sari regrets part of the contract signed, Sari will have nothing to do having given her consent at first. Her attempt to rescind the part of the contract relating to painting the exterior would be totally unsuccessful for such a matter.
