How does a counterclaim support a writer’s position in an argumentative essay?

1. the counterclaim shows how the position is misleading.
2. the counterclaim shows how the opposing opinion is incorrect.
3. the counterclaim allows readers to state their own positions.
4. the counterclaim allows readers to provide their own interpretations.

It is 2. Hope this helps brainleist Please

It would be 2 because counterclaims are used to make an argument stronger (hence the original question), not weaker. Using that reasoning, the 1st option would be false. Also, the 3rd option is false because a counterclaim is something about the other side of the argument, not what someone feels. Finally, the 4th option is false because it is basically the same thing as option 3, but with slight differences---an interpretation is how someone understands a concept, not how they feel about it. 

Hope this helps!! :)
