Practice question

  1. No, later agreements can never be proved.
  2. No, only a printing error is relevant.
  3. Yes; subsequent agreed terms are a listed exception, subject to proof and other applicable requirements.
  4. Yes; any unilateral wish becomes an agreed term.
  5. No, because verification has no role.
