Which of the following is a specific purpose statement for a persuasive speech on a question of fact? To persuade my audience th

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

D). To persuade my audience that capital punishment fails to deter people from committing murder.

Explanation:

A purpose statement is described as a statement that primarily functions to define the topic and purpose of the speech or essay in a precise and compact manner. It reveals the key focus, direction, and objectives of the work that are going to be accomplished at the end.

As per the question, option D i.e. 'To persuade my audience that capital punishment fails to deter people from committing murder' reveals the purpose statement designed for a persuasive speech on a question of fact. This would reveal the factual 'cause-and-effect'('capital punishment in preventing murders') direction that the speech would deal with. It would assist in establishing the credibility of the claim and convince the audience logically. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
