Question

americans were afraid the united states could not win the war on its own.
americans thought the cuban revolutionaries wouldn’t allow the united states to trade in cuba.
americans feared spain would become too powerful.
americans became more supportive of intervention in cuba.
Yellow journalism in the 1890s (e.g., by newspapers like Hearst's and Pulitzer's) sensationalized stories about Spanish atrocities in Cuba. This propaganda - style reporting stirred public emotion, making Americans more supportive of the U.S. intervening to help Cuba fight Spain. The other options: fear of U.S. losing alone, concerns about trade with revolutionaries, or fear of Spain's power were not the main impacts of yellow journalism here.
