Answer:

c) large states had more elected officials than small states, but small states were equal in the senate

Step-by-step explanation:

The Connecticut Compromise or Great Compromise was formed during the 1787 where elected officials was based on the population of the state.

According to the Great Compromise, states with a large population had more elected officials than states with less population, but states with less population (small states) were equal in the senate. It was a bicameral legislature structure that created two houses one with representation based on population and small states were equal in the senate.

Hence, the correct option is "c".
