On January 5, the Rolland Corporation sent a letter offering to sell a new line of above-ground pools to Tibbets, the owner of Tibbets Leisure Center, at a considerably reduced introductory price. The letter stated that the offer would be good until January 20. When Tibbets received the letter on January 10, he immediately sent a telegram of acceptance.

B) Yes, on January 20; Tibbets used a commercially reasonable means of acceptance.
C) No. Rolland Corporation had specified the method by which acceptance must be made.
