Answer 2

A. The people grant power to a government for the well-being of all

Step-by-step explanation:

The Social Contract Theory exists to explain how humanity adhered to a form of government based on the establishment and obedience to the State. According to this theory, people initially lived in a "state of nature," where there were no laws, causing insecurity to the physical and material integrity of people, especially the physically weak. Then society joins and gives up certain freedoms in exchange for the establishment of a state that would be responsible for maintaining social order, which would consequently generate social welfare for all.
