Read the introduction. i support the purchase of streetlights for our community. my young sons enjoy riding their skateboards in the street in the evening, but darkness makes this a reckless undertaking, even with reflective gear. further, our family has contributed dues to the neighborhood association for nearly ten years, and no structural improvements have been made during this time. the association has money saved for projects such as these, and it is time to use these funds to promote safety. what is the author’s purpose? to inform readers about skateboarding safety to inform readers about neighborhood dues to persuade readers to support an investment to persuade readers to save their money

I believe that this article is to inform readers about neighborhood dues. examine the other answer choices.

the author couldn't have meant for this text to be about skateboarding safety because the author did not focus on skateboarding, instead using it as a relevant topic to make the flow of their article better and give a 'backstory' (or some insight into why the author is so involved in the community).

the article couldn't be to persuade readers to support an investment because the author is explaining how even while they were investing in their neighborhood association, they weren't seeing any benefits from giving the association.

the article isn't talking about saving money, it's just talking about taking action and using the money already invested for its intended purpose.

while the excerpt, "it is time to use these funds to promote safety" sounds persuasive, using the process of elimination I have come to conclude it is likely option b.

I hope this helps you! have a good day-

explanation:   "the magician of menlo park" as he was called, liked to tell an incident that happened when he was 8 years old and came back home crying after attending school for three months because his teacher called him "sterile and unproductive". from nowadays perspective, we can say that thomas alva edison was one of the most persistent and determined man that has ever existed. when edison was 14, he contracted scarlet fever. the effect of the fever, as well as a blow to the head by an angry train conductor, caused edison to become completely deaf in his left ear, and 80-percent deaf in the other. so as you can see he had to struggle to not so many minor issues but he always succeeded.
