Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement is described as the grammatical rule according to which the subject, as well as, the verb must agree with one another in number. As per the rules, if the subject(noun or noun phrase) is singular, it will take a singular verb while if the subject is plural(noun or noun phrase), it will carry a plural verb.

According to this rule, the first and third sentence fails to follow this agreement. The first sentence inadequately carries a plural verb 'were' with the singular noun ('The statement') and similarly, the third sentence wrongly employs plural verb 'have' with the singular noun 'the use.' The other sentences are grammatically appropriate as the verbs and noun phrases agree in number.
