When you think of Monopolist, do you think Monopolistic or Monopoly?
None of these answers seemed to fit the question so I choose d because it seemed close. The answer is C, so I have Becker take me the page where they got the answer and they take me to the page relating to Monopoly? So am to assume that if I see monopolist on the test it's referring to Monopoly?
