Answer to Question 1

Answer:3
Rationale: Tachycardia is a sign of congestive heart failure because the heart attempts to improve cardiac output by beating faster.Bradycardia is a serious sign and can indicate impending cardiac arrest.Blood pressure does not increase in CHF,and the weight,instead of decreasing,increases because of retention of fluids.

Answer to Question 2

Rationale 4: Personal motivation needs to be considered when deciding on a contraceptive method.
