Answer 1

In responding to a student's request for help writing a letter, it was explained how to structure a formal business letter to advocate for plant rankings to protect the dunes, including an introduction, procedure description, rankings with evidence, and a closing paragraph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing a formal business letter to Mr. Sandy Waters, the President of Save the Shoreline, involves addressing several key components. First, start with a traditional letter format, including a greeting and a formal closing. The body of the letter should have a logical flow divided into paragraphs, each serving a distinct purpose:

• An introduction explaining your motivation and the purpose of the letter.
• The procedure for ranking plants, clearly outlining how you determined the rankings.
• A section detailing all plant rankings with supporting evidence from your data.
• A closing paragraph that illustrates how these rankings can protect the dunes.

Ensure that each paragraph is clear and concise, providing necessary evidence and reasoning to support your rankings. Use a polite and professional tone throughout the letter.
