Answer 2

I just would ask you to recheck the Farrington one since I haven't read that, but the rest of the questions seem to be right.

Answer 3

I have not read any of these, so unfortunately cannot check your answers. However, I have to comment and say that this is an excellent example of how one should check their answers on OpenStudy. Too often people just ask for the answers, which makes it hard to distinguish whether they are trying to cheat on their assignment or not. The way you have done it makes it clear that you have attempted to do the work yourself and just want confirmation that you have done things right. Kudos to you on an excellent question.
