Question

which statements best describe an effective claim in an argumentative essay? select two options.
it is precise and clear.
it is debatable but cannot be refuted.
it is emotional and states an opinion.
it states a bias using clear language.
it states a fact using precise language

Explanation:

An effective claim in an argumentative essay should be precise and clear so that readers understand the stance. Also, it should state a fact using precise language as it provides a solid foundation for the argument. A claim that is just emotional (not based on facts) or states a bias is weak. A claim that is "debatable but cannot be refuted" is not practical - in academic discourse, most claims can be debated and potentially counter - argued with evidence.

Answer:

It is precise and clear.
It states a fact using precise language.
