Answer:
A) Tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill.
Explanation:
The option that if true most seriously weakens the argument above is: tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill because the statement says that importing oil on tankers entails a greater risk of an oil spill than offshore oil-drilling and the option chosen directly talks about that and says that the tankers can easily be redesigned to decrease the risks of an oil spill which goes against the argument given.
The other options are not right because the options B and C support the argument given. Also, options D and E doesn't talk about oil spill which is the topic on the argument presented.
Answer: The creditor will be able to recover $1,350
Explanation:
The amount that the creditor will be able to recover will be the contract price less the damages for the minor breach by the company.
In this case, the company finished all of the tasks except for the cleaning of the oven. Since this is minor with regards to the contract, the company will be seen to have performed its contract.
Since we are told the cost of finishing the job was 10% of the contract cost, this will be regarded as a minor breach, therefore, the owner of the condominium cannot avoid the payment of the price of the contract price. In this case, the creditor will be able to recover ($1500 - $150) = $1,350.

Answer:
A. The total production of bread and wine rises
Explanation:
<u>Note: The question appeared incomplete as neither John's nor Jane's production efficiency is provided. A similar question has been attached for reference purpose upon which this answer is based</u>.
Jane takes 2hrs for making a bottle of wine while John takes 3 hours for preparing a bottle of wine. Hence Jane is more efficient in production of wine than John and if Jane devotes more hours to wine production, the production of wine shall rise.
Similarly, John is more efficient in production of bread as he takes 1 hour for producing a loaf of bread against Jane who takes longer i.e 1.5 hours. Thus, if John devotes more time in preparing bread, the production of bread shall rise.
Hence, the correct answer is (A). The total production of bread and wine each rises.
