Answer 1

The correct option is D which states Marah's statement is normative and Nelie's statement is positive . This statement is correct because Nelie's statement is telling about the positive relationship between education and income but marah's statement is just a observation.

Option A is not correct because Marah's statement was not positive.

Option B is also not correct because Marah's statement was not positive and Nellie's statement is positive.

Option C is also not correct Nelie's statement is not normative it is positive.
