Your question is incomplete because it does not include the answer options, which are:
Her neighbor lacks the equipment to rake leaves and thinks it would take too long to do the job.
Her neighbor is getting revenge on her because Nicole didn’t rake the leaves on her lawn last year.
Her neighbor is a busy person and doesn’t have time to rake leaves.
Her neighbor is a lawyer who values his time at $200 an hour and knows that he can hire a high school kid to rake leaves for $20 an hour.
Her neighbor is a high school teacher and values his time at $15 an hour, and he knows that he can hire one of his students to rake leaves for $20 an hour.
Answer:
Her neighbor is a lawyer who values his time at $200 an hour and knows that he can hire a high school kid to rake leaves for $20 an hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rational refers to something reasonable or logic. As a result, the fact that Nicole's neighbor does not think it is an intelligent or practical decision to spend an hour raking the leaves by himself leads to the conclusion that he understands Nicole's situation and earns enough money to hire somebody to do the job for a few dollars.
The rest of the options are incorrect because they do not follow the rules of logic. The text does not mention the equipment need, past situations or the neighbour's spare time. Besides, paying a student more than you earn an hour is not sensible either.
