(D), (E) Only

Correct Answer:

(A), (C) Only

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → (A), (C) Only

The word "impeccable" means flawless, perfect, or without any mistakes. So, we need to find words that mean the opposite (having flaws, mistakes, or moral decay).

 (A) Imperfect → Opposite of impeccable because it means flawed or not perfect.

 (C) Decadent → Opposite of impeccable because it means morally corrupt, deteriorating, or lacking virtue.

 (B) InfallibleSimilar to impeccable because it means incapable of making mistakes.

 (D) FaultlessSimilar to impeccable because it means without any faults or errors.

 (E) UnerringSimilar to impeccable because it means always accurate or making no mistakes.

Thus, the correct opposite words are (A) Imperfect and (C) Decadent.
