The question asks: 'For the simple game depicted below, choose which of the following combinations of Lower House and Senate votes is a losing coalition. The first number in parentheses represents the votes from the Lower House and the second number in parentheses represents the votes from the Senate (LH, Senate).'

First, I will restate what we know: a coalition is evaluated based on its ability to pass legislation in both chambers. A losing coalition, in this context, would be one that does not achieve a majority in at least one of the chambers, meaning it cannot secure passage.

Next, I note that the provided data shows the correct answer as (100, 30). However, the list of answer options is empty in the given input, so I cannot analyze each option individually as requested. I will nonetheless explain why the pair (100, 30) would be considered losing, given typical majority rules for a legislature.

- Assessing the Lower House (LH): If the LH has 500 seats total (as suggested by the x-axis range to 500), a majority would require more than half of 500, i.e., 251 votes. A coalition with only 100 LH votes falls far short of a majority in the Lower House, so it cannot pass ordinary legislation on its own in that chamber.

- Assessing the Senate: If the Senate has 100 seats total (as suggested by the y-axis range to 100), a majority would require more than half of 100, i.e., 51 votes. A coalition with 30 Senate votes also falls short of a majority in the Senate, so it cannot pass legislation in that chamber either.

Since the coalition lacks a majority in at least one chamber (in fact, in both for (100, 30)), it is a losing coalition under typical two-chamber majority requirements. This aligns with the given answer of (100, 30).

Because there are no answer options provided to compare against, I cannot comment on why the other options are incorrect or analyze them individually. If you supply the list of all options, I can walk through each one and explain why it is winning or losing in the same style, with nuanced reasoning for why each alternative fails or succeeds.

For the simple game depicted below, choose which of the following combinations of Lower House and Senate votes is a losing coalition. The first number in parentheses represents the votes from the Lower House and the second number in parentheses represents the votes from the Senate (LH, Senate).
