Which of the following statements correctly explains the use of articles in the following sentence: After earning an MBA, Srinivas was able to approach a mathematical problem from both a business and analytical perspective.
A.
"An MBA" uses the indefinite article an because it begins
with a vowel sound, and "a
mathematical problem" uses a
because "mathematical"
begins with a consonant
sound.
B.
"An MBA" uses a because
MBA is an acronym, and "a
mathematical problem" should
use the since it is referring to a
unique or previously
mentioned problem.
C.
Both articles are used
incorrectly because "an MBA"
should use a and "a
mathematical problem" should
use the.
D.
"An MBA" should use a
instead, because it refers to a
specific degree, and "a
mathematical problem" should
use the to refer to a specific
problem.
