I would say the correct answer is <span>C. The author doesn't use any facts to support such a claim, so it can't be proven. When making this kind of claim, one has to support it with facts, e.g. artists make this or that percent of their income on concerts and commercials, which clearly proves that they don't depend on the money from CDs etc. The options A and B are not correct because they rely on "everyone knows", which is not true, and is also not supported with facts. The D option isn't correct because one doesn't need to know every artist personally to be able to make a claim based on facts.</span>

Can someone please help me answer this in the picture
Masja [62]

If you look, you can see in 1998, it shows males getting into more fatal accidents.  However, in 2008, it seems as though there are more females who get into accidents.  The only thing I've noticed is how they don't state whether some of these people had caused the accident or died in the accident.
