Answer 1

Martin's claim is good because it appropriately responds to the prompt.

Step-by-step explanation:

He explained that IF they passed they're classes etc, that it would not be fair which is reasonable. If he only said "because it's not fair", I would think that that answer would be based on emotion and not reasoning, but he gave reasons.
