step-by-step explanation: the declaration of the rights of man and of the citizen (french: déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen de 1789), set by france's national constituent assembly in 1789, is a human civil rights document from the french revolution.[1]

the declaration was drafted by the abbé sieyès and the marquis de lafayette, in consultation with thomas jefferson.[2] influenced by the doctrine of "natural right", the rights of man are held to be universal: valid at all times and in every place, pertaining to human nature itself. it became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law. it is included in the beginning of the constitutions of both the fourth french republic (1946) and fifth republic (1958) and is still current. inspired by the enlightenment philosophers, the declaration was a core statement of the values of the french revolution and had a major impact on the development of freedom and democracy in europe and worldwide.[3]

the 1789 declaration, together with the 1215 magna carta, the 1689 english bill of rights (1689), the 1776 united states declaration of independence, and the 1789 united states bill of rights, inspired in large part the 1948 united nations universal declaration of human rights

the first option is the answer.

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies

the answer is b
