The statement that is true here is:

b.

The agreement is unenforceable under the doctrine of impossibility.

Explanation:

This is a murky situation in terms of the law because the law itself changes after the contract is drawn up.

We can see how in a situation like this the old rule could still apply however that cannot be the case here as the permit to draw up the land simply cannot pass government sanction anymore.

If the act was possible it would only be if it was to be done in Independence.

Now that a specific law outlaws it, the work becomes impossible and the contract is not valid anymore.

One of the great benefits of trade is
Tanzania [10]

I believe the answer is: B.That it makes it possible for society to become better off by increasing both its production and its consumption.

Without trades, in order to fulfill all needs of the people, a country need to separate their time and resources to produce each of the needed products. With trades, a country could increase the production of the products in which they have a natural advantage at, and trade the products with other countries in case we need different product that we do not produce here.
