Answer 1

For a misdemeanor carrying weapons on public recreational property, the sentence should not exceed 11 months and 29 days of imprisonment and a $2,500 fine, so the correct answer is option a) 30 days, 1 year, $1,000, $5,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question is asking to fill in the blanks with appropriate legal penalties for a misdemeanor offense. Given the reference information provided, that state law prescribes a maximum penalty of eleven (11) months and twenty-nine (29) days and a fine not to exceed two thousand five hundred dollars ($2500) for carrying weapons on or in public recreational property, we can deduce that the correct answer must not exceed these limits. Therefore, the appropriate completion of the statement is: 'A person, company, or association is guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be punished by imprisonment in a county jail not less than 30 days and nor more than 1 year, or by a fine of not less than $1,000 nor more than $5,000, or by both fine and imprisonment.'
