Answer:

Energy crisis.

Iran hostage crisis.

High inflation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Right from the start of President Jimmy Carter's term in office from 1977-81, the nation was already suffering from high inflation, known as the period of "stagflation". This would constitute just one minor issue that will affect his presidency.

Some major issues that would also beset his presidency would include issues relating to the energy crisis, recession, health care, etc. But one of the bigger issues that makes him unpopular was the Iran hostage crisis where more than fifty American nationals, including diplomats, were held hostage by the militarized student body known as the Muslim Student Followers of the Imam's Line.

Thus, the correct answers are second, fourth, and fifth options.
