Question

question 1-18
the equal opportunity in education act:
limited the educational
allowed women to be admitted to college
prohibited discrimination based on gender
demanded equal pay for equal work for men and women

Explanation:

The Equal Opportunity in Education Act (Title IX) prohibits gender - based discrimination in educational programs or activities receiving federal funding.

• The first option is incorrect as the act aims to expand equal educational opportunities, not limit them.
• The second option is incorrect because women's college admission was already happening in many cases before this act, and the act is about non - discrimination rather than just admission.
• The fourth option is incorrect as equal pay for equal work is related to labor laws (like the Equal Pay Act), not the Equal Opportunity in Education Act.

Answer:

C. prohibited discrimination based on gender
