How does Lady Macbeth feel about how Macbeth carried out the murder?
A
She is indifferent.
B
She is revolted that someone she loves could commit cold-blooded murder.
C
She is ashamed by how scared he acts throughout the ordeal
D
She is filled with pride over his deed.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -She is indifferent. She is ashamed by how scared he acts throughout the ordeal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lady Macbeth, famously and erroneously, predicts in the play that once the deed of the murders is done, it will be behind her and her husband, and they will be able to carry on with their lives. It is, however, her guilt that does not allow this to happen, and she eventually descends into delirium.

Detailed explanation-3: -She perceives Macbeth as possessing too much compassion, which she thinks will prevent him from carrying out the murder of Duncan successfully. The relationship between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth is close in Act 1 Scene 5 because Lady Macbeth must work with Macbeth in order to carry out her plan to murder Duncan.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lady Macbeth faints and Macbeth in rage kills the two drunken guards after claiming that they obviously killed their King. These actions largely free Macbeth and Lady Macbeth from suspicion.
