Which term denotes a person appointed or elected to represent others?

• A. Credit
• B. Delegate
• C. Federal
• D. Clause

Answer: (B)

Being a delegate means a person is chosen to act on behalf of a group, either through election or appointment. That role is to represent the interests and instructions of those they serve, making decisions or casting votes as a stand-in for others. This directly captures the idea of someone appointed or elected to represent others. Credit relates to acknowledgment or trust rather than representation, federal describes a system of government rather than an individual, and a clause is just a provision in a document, not a person who represents others.
