b. proof that the seller used the term "warrant."
c. proof that the seller is a merchant.
d. none of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

None of the above

Explanation:

Implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose is a warranty that a seller has knowledge about a product and the purpose of that product, and the seller guarantees the buyer that the product is fit to be used for that purpose.

The requirements therefore are that;

• The seller knows about the product required by the buyer, and its purpose.

• The seller knows the buyer is relying on his expertise.

Therefore, none of the options provided above are requirements of implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.
