Are my answers correct?
I think so.
Yes, you are correct. A council-manager form of city government may also have an elected mayor, though. So either answer would be correct, but you have to choose one, and B is as good as C. A and D are wrong.
Thank you so much! ^_^
Just to be clear, both your answers are correct. :)
Just noting, Reed is right, both could be right. Here in Austin, we have a council-manager form, with an elected mayor.
Great! Thanks for the great info and guidance! :)
Yes, your answers are correct.
To find the answers to the questions:
1. Which form of city government has an elected mayor?
You can find the answer by researching different forms of city government. The commission form does not have an elected mayor, so you can eliminate option A. The council-manager form has a city manager instead of an elected mayor, so you can eliminate option C. The incorporation form refers to the process of establishing a city, so you can eliminate option D. This leaves you with option B, the mayor-council form, which indeed has an elected mayor.
2. Which is an important function of county government?
To determine the answer, you would need to understand the roles and responsibilities of county governments. Taxing imports and hosting foreign leaders are not typically functions of county governments, so you can eliminate options A and D. Overseeing tribal governments is usually the responsibility of the federal government, not county governments, so you can eliminate option B. This leaves you with option C, running elections, which is indeed an important function of county governments.
