Answer:

D

B

Explanation:

ceteris paribus is a Latin phrase that means all other things being equal. It means that other variables are unchanged.

For example, according to the law of demand, all other things being equal, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

For this law to hold, it is assumed that consumers tastes do not change or income do not change. If the income of a consumer changes and prices increases, the consumer would be able to buy more of a good at the higher price.

In order to isolate the effects of one particular variable in the physics experiment, she has to make sure the incline is the same angle for each trial. If the incline is different, it might affect the results of the experiment
