Explanation: A claim is a statement that asserts something as it is true. When making a claim in order to persuade an audience, we need to make sure that we have a strong argument that can be supported by evidence such as examples or statistics. If you are going to propose to a local gym that it offer specific fitness classes for teenage members, an effective claim would be that "Classes designed for youth would foster appropriate fitness habits and enthusiasm for the gym programs" because it is emphasizing in the benefits of implementing those classes.
