Answer: c. appeals to reason

definition: a rhetorical strategy where the argument is made by presenting facts that lead the audience to a specific conclusion.

Explanation:

the technique is trying to explain to the reader why a riverside bypass is a logical solution to the problem. throughout the passage, the author states information about the problem. for example: "traffic on main street has become a pervasive problem. one possible solution is to create a bypass. traffic records suggest that more then 60 percent of vehicles that go down main street are simply passing through town on their way to someplace else. right now, drivers have no choice but to drive on main street. if a bypass was built, they would almost always use it."

Hope this helps!

Have a great day and night!

What is more important? What a person thinks, or what a person does?
skelet666 [1.2K]
It's more important to what a person does because as they say, actions speak louder than words do. A person can think a certain way but not act on it but what a person does reflects what they decide internally and what they wanted to do with that idea externally showing that they are serious with that idea of theirs in their head.
