You work as an Office Assistant for Company Inc. You are creating a presentation in PowerPoint
2010. You want a symbol to appear on every slide except one. You have selected a placeholder on

the slide and pressed the delete key to remove it. However, this approach does not work. Which of
the following steps will you take to resolve the issue?

A.
Insert a shape on the placeholder.

B.
Right-click the placeholder and select the Delete option.

C.
Select the slide and clear the background graphic check box.

D.
Remove all the placeholders.

Explanation:
A user can remove the placeholder by covering it with a shape because in Slide Master, the user can
either get all of the placeholders or none of them.
Slide Master comprises a set of formatting groups. Following are the elements of Slide Master:
1.Edit master
2.Master layout
3.Edit theme
4.Background
5.Page setup
6.Close
Answer option C is incorrect. Selecting the slide and hiding the background graphic check box will
remove all the placeholders, except the title and text.
Answer option D is incorrect. Removing all the placeholders will delete all the placeholders.
Answer option B is incorrect. The placeholders cannot be deleted by using the Delete option.
