Which is the correct definition and use of the word with the root dict? a.) contradict means "to complement." our stories contradicted each other. b.) interdict means "to be first." she made an interdict when she got in line. c.) dictate means "to say or read aloud." will you dictate the word in a sentence before we have to spell it? d.) jurisdiction means "to say the truth." her jurisdiction got us in trouble.

The answer is C. Contradict is to disagree, interdict is an authoritative figure, and jurisdiction is the power to make legal decisions.

answer: inference

explanation:

an inference can be understood as a conclusion to which a person is able to get based on reasoning. it is the same as a deduction, a guess, an assumption.   in the sentence presented, the conjunction "but" gives the readers an idea of contrast, and, therefore, allows them to induce that despite the opponent's characteristics, andrea had something different that made her win.
