which scenario is the best example of an indirect democracy? a father tells his son that he cannot go to a basketball game. a student body votes to allow shorts to be worn to school. a student council approves vending machines in the cafeteria. a principal decides to extend the school day by twenty minutes.

The correct answer is A student council approves vending machines in the cafeteria.

Indirect democracy means that citizens will vote for representatives, and these representatives will make decisions - laws and other things - on their behalf. In this case, students voted for the representatives that make the student council and the council that was chosen by them will approve the vending machines.
