Question

what is the best definition of an argumentative text?
a text that uses vivid language to engage the audience in the topic
a text that supports a claim about a debatable topic using evidence as support
a text that presents evidence to inform the audience about a specific topic
a text that uses rhetorical devices to support a particular perspective

Explanation:

An argumentative text centers on a debatable claim, which it defends using factual evidence. Vivid language or rhetorical devices alone do not define it, and informing an audience is the goal of expository, not argumentative, text. The correct definition must include a debatable claim supported by evidence.

Answer:

a text that supports a claim about a debatable topic using evidence as support
