Answer: The author doesn't use any facts to support such a claim, so it can't be proven.

Explanation:

Fallacies are flaws that decrease the validity of arguments. In this case, the idea that all artists are famous and making millions is a fallacy only stated by the author, without providing any facts to support it. It could be considered a hasty generalization, meaning it makes a broad conclusion on a small sample or without all of the data needed to do so.

This passage is a fallacious reasoning because it contradicts the from the actual argument that the person is referring to. This is an example of an inconsistent premise, because the person had mentioned that artists don't create money, but in another argument it was stated that the "artists" that sing and are famous make money even more.

Anarel [89]

The correct answer is A. Gentrification

Explanation:

The term "gentrification" refers to the process in which neighborhoods or areas that are considered as poor or from low value are transformed into central areas by creating wealthy neighborhoods, new businesses, and important buildings. This process makes cities and area grow but also in most cases displaces former residents as they are unable to pay for goods and services because these become more expensive.

Considering the previous ideas, the pattern described refers to gentrification because in the U. S. and Russia poor areas and buildings are transformed into upscale apartments and as a result of this long-time residents are displaced which implies areas from low value are transformed into central areas and therefore gentrification occurs.
