(B) a highly successful automobile was introduced by the same company that had earlier introduced a model that had been a dismal failure

(D) one of the first models of modern accounting machines, designed for use in the banking industry, was purchased by a public library as well as by banks
(E) the inventor of a commonly used anesthetic did not intend the product to be used by dentists, who currently account for almost the entire market for that drug.
