Recognizing IntoxicationQuestion 32 of 80

b.Only the time of day
c.Only the price paid
d.Body weight, biological sex, food intake, and drinking pace
Explanation
BAC depends on personal factors including body weight, biological sex, whether the person has eaten, and how fast they drink. Two guests consuming identical drinks can therefore be affected very differently. Servers should judge each guest individually rather than by drink count alone.
