B.  All legal votes have been counted accurately.

I think is right

B. All legal votes have been counted accurately.

Explanation:

This is the only requirement out of the list that is necessary in order to demonstrate that an election of government officials was legitimate. For an election to be considered legitimate, all votes must have been counted accurately. Moreover, these votes must be done in a legal way, according to the laws of the particular jurisdiction. If this is not respected, the election might not be considered valid.

the answer is a. since they were a huge producer of cotton and wanted the most money for it.

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27
