Lillie Oconnell · Answer 1

b. False

Explanation:

John promised to pay Bill if he painted the garage by Friday but John called him to cancel the deal before he began to do the task and he didn't even buy the supplies. So, John won't be obligated to pay Bill $100 if he buys the supplies and paints John's garage because John let him know that the deal was off before he had bought anything. According to that, the statement is false.
