@r.wang1 It's really just a matter of picking the answer that does the best job of explaining the discrepancy. On LSAT questions like this, multiple answer choices can sound reasonable or be partially correct, so the goal is to find the one that most directly accounts for what's going on.
The idea that there could be other major energy-consuming sources might help explain the situation, but it's a weaker explanation because we don't actually know whether those other sources exist or how much energy they're using. It's more speculative.
By contrast, answer choice B gives us a much more concrete explanation. We already know that air conditioning has overloaded the power grid, and we're told there's record-breaking heat. Even if homeowners reduce their air conditioning use, businesses and factories continuing to operate at normal levels would still place a significant demand on the grid. Since air conditioning is already identified as a major contributor to the problem, B provides a much stronger and more direct explanation for why the overload persists.
@AnyahJoseph815 BRO ME TOOOOOOOOOO i feel like he shouldve made that distinction especially after moving on from conditional statements like i was breaking my head
I just put out the worlds craziest happy dance bc i got this right first try. (went a lil over in time but WE TAKE OUR WINS SERIOUS HERE)
@danjpeach96 I completely agree. The specification "via the disney app" is used as clutter in this scenario. In a real LR question, there will be answer choices. The answer choices make it a bit easier to discipher whether the app is relevant to the argument or not.
For instance, if there was an answer choice that said "Therefore, Walt must have offered the requisite propitiations to Mickey Mouse on the app" that would have been the correct answer.
In this case, assuming that choice does not exist, the answer choice "Therefore, Walt must have offered the requisite propitiations to Mickey Mouse." would be the correct one because it proves the argument correct and is supported by all aforementioned statements while also telling you "Hey, the fact that it's on the app is not relevant so im not even giving it to you as a choice." They're indirectly telling you with the choices the app is irrelevant.
Thats how I understand it.
This question killed me. I quite literally yelled out numerous times WHY IS BRIGHTNESS IMPORTANT. WHO SAID WHAT ABOUT DISTANCE. WHAT THIS GOTTA DO WITH AGE. And then I realized that this is not an inference question, and I had to just find an explanation that would support. I swear I was on this question for over an hour WITH CHATGPT, THE VIDEO, THE ANALYSIS, AND THE INDIVIDUAL ANALYSIS OPEN and still could not for the life of me.
