Please help me with my online homework! This was my answer submission, and I got most of part a wrong.

All cells in the table can be answered with either: + , - , (+/-) , or blank.

Except the last column, which can be answered with: OA , IA , FA , or blank.

Feel free to ignore parts b, c, d, e. They are correct, I just included them for reference.
