Answer to Question 1

decreasing kVp by 15 would produce density equal to halving the mAs

Rationale: kV and density are directly related, they are not directly proportional. If it is desired to double the density and mAs cannot be adjusted, kVp can be increased by 15.

Answer to Question 2

tort

Rationale: A tort is typically a civil wrongdoing, whereas the other answer choices are criminal wrongdoings.
