Answer 1

The answer would be A. Statistics or other facts that will bring audiences to a logical conclusion. The other options express an appeal to readers but this is an appeal to reason because you have factual information that you can reason out to your readers for them to believe it.

Answer 2

The correct answer here is the first option.

All of these are used in order to present and appeal to audience but only the first option appeals to reason. Using facts and statistics is a good way to logically show and argument your point. This way you will be using the reason to appeal to your audience and that is why the first option is correct.
