Explanation:
In writing, a citation refers to the use of the words and ideas of an external source and therefore another author, which is commonly used to support and explain the ideas during a text. According to the MLA manual and other style manuals for writing academical paper when using the ideas or words of another author it is necessary to make clear which ideas are being used and to whom they belong, this is done by using in-text citation during the text and creating a work cited list at the end of the document with all the information of the source cited.
In the case of printed articles from magazines or similar publications, it is established during in-text citation it is necessary to include the last name of the author of the article followed by the page number which is usually done by including this information in parenthesis or doing a parenthetical citation. This means in the case of the source presented the parenthetical citation should include the last name of the author "Perenson" and the page number "30" therefore the option that shows the correct parenthetical citation of this source is (Perenson 30).

c) speaking to students who were recently accepted into the college Opal would like to attend.
Explanation:
Remember we are taking into consideration the notion that "one should not waste time compiling information if someone else has already done it." If Opal wants to research strategies to get accepted into her college of choice, the best thing she can do is talk to people who have already accomplished that same goal. Those people already know what to do, what strategy works for that specific college. By talking to them, Opal can adapt her own strategy to better suit that college.
