Explanation:

Question 15

The Preamble of the U.S. Constitution states goals including "provide for the common defense", "insure domestic tranquility", and "secure the blessings of liberty" for the people. So all the options a, b, c are part of what the U.S. Constitution intends to do.

By the design of the U.S. government, each state is represented by 2 Senators in the Senate, regardless of the state's population size.

To be a Senator, the requirements are being at least 30 years old, a U.S. citizen for at least 9 years, and an inhabitant of the state they represent. A Representative needs to be at least 25, a citizen for 7 years. The President needs to be at least 35, a natural - born citizen, and a resident for 14 years. Supreme Court Justices have no such age and citizenship duration requirements in the Constitution.

Answer:

d. All of the above
