Question

Which statement best uses specific evidence to support an argument or claim?

I hear that smoking isn't that common anymore.

I've noticed that a lot of people in Alabama smoke.

A survey from the Truth Initiative shows that in 2017, 20.9% of adults in Alabama smoked.

Smoking is a problem because it can make you sick.

Answer 1

The third option shows evidence. A survey from the Truth Initiative shows that in 2017, 20.9% of adults in Alabama smoked.

When you read all other options none of them give you any data or statements that can be classified as “evidence.”

Hope this helps!
