A traveler passing through a city stopped at a service station and asked the owner to check the oil in her car. The owner had just received an alert about a suspect in several armed robberies of service stations. The traveler and her car matched the description of the suspect. After checking the oil, the owner called the police and then falsely informed the traveler that she had a broken fan belt, that her car could not be driven without a new belt, that it would take him about an hour to replace it, and that she should stay in his office while he fixed it. The traveler was annoyed that her journey was delayed, but she waited in the office. The police arrived shortly thereafter and, after brief questioning, determined that the traveler was not the robber. The traveler was upset when she learned that the broken fan belt was just a ruse, and she consequently brought an action for false imprisonment against the owner. If the jury finds in favor of the owner, what is the likely reason

The owner reasonably believed that the traveler committed felonies.

Explanation:

Considering the fact that "the owner had just received an alert about a suspect in several armed robberies of service stations. And that the traveler and her car matched the description of the suspect."

Hence, If the jury finds in favor of the owner, the likely reason is that "The owner reasonably believed that the traveler committed felonies, " which is obvious.

Also, from the narration, it can be understood that the owner of the service station made the call to the best of his knowledge and not because he intentionally tried to delay the owner of the car.

i am confused, what is the question? i can you out if you put it into more depth.

even though you have attached neither the chart nor the generalizations, i have located them online. the right answer is d, since they are asking you about a generalization. you can only infer from the chart that between 2008 and 2009 the number of employed workers decreased significantly (from over 115 millions to 107 millions approximately), which signals some type of economic crisis.
