In a mixed contract, the court first looks at the dominant purpose of the contract. If the sale of goods is the dominant purpose, then the UCC Article 2 will apply. If the sale of services is the dominant purpose, then common law will apply. Thus, option C is the correct choice. Option A is incorrect as it does not consider the dominant purpose of the contract. Option B is incorrect as lex mercatoria may not always be applicable or recognized in all jurisdictions. Option D is also incorrect as UCC Article 2A applies only to leases involving goods.
