Automotive Marketing Consultant: Small hybrid vehicles, while very fuel efficient and suitable for long and frequent commutes, often do not have powerful performance and handling. On the other hand, premium luxury cars burn more fuel but offer superior handling, performance and a thrilling driving experience. We should therefore be able to make a prediction about the preferences of individual car buyers based on their car-buying patterns.
The consultant suggests that predictions about individuals can be made based upon patterns of those individuals. Indicate in the table below, the possible prediction and pattern that most strongly conform to the Consultant's statement above. Make only two selections, one in each column.

1. We can split the answer choices into two groups.
Pattern:
- The individual buys luxury cars.
- The individual buys small hybrid vehicles.
Prediction:
- The individual does not commute to work.
- The individual values fuel economy.
- The individual is more wealthy than the average person.
2. Let's consider the prediction statements and see which one is most likely to determine from the text.
- The individual does not commute to work. It is mentioned that small hybrid vehicles are "suitable for long and frequent commutes," however the commute cannot be associated to a long and frequent commute based on the information given. So, this statement doesn't work.
- The individual values fuel economy. The text does mention fuel economy by saying that one vehicle is fuel efficient, while the other isn't as much. It can reasonably be assumed that an individual's value of fuel economy can make a difference. So, this statement does work.
- The individual is more wealthy than the average person. Even though it seems logical for the vehicles to vary in cost, money isn't mentioned anywhere in the text. So, this statement doesn't work.
3. If the individual values fuel economy, then they should go for small hybrid vehicles since they are "very fuel efficient" and "premium luxury cars burn more fuel."
4. Our answer will be: Prediction - The individual values fuel economy. Pattern - The individual buys small hybrid vehicles.
Pattern:
- The individual buys luxury cars.
- The individual buys small hybrid vehicles.
Prediction:
- The individual does not commute to work.
- The individual values fuel economy.
- The individual is more wealthy than the average person.
