c and if i dont want to go the football game, i dont have to go.
d angels cell phone began beeping loudly in class, disturbing everyone.
which two sentences below have examples of contested usage within them?

Explanation:

Contested usage often involves non - standard or debated grammar. In the sentence “And if I don't want to go the football game, I don't have to go.”, the preposition “to” is missing before “the football game” (it should be “go to the football game”). This is a case of contested usage as it is a common error that is debated in language usage.

Answer:

C. And if I don't want to go the football game, I don't have to go.
