Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Weighting decision criteria involves ranking the importance of different factors. For Brendan and Leo's decision on purchasing their first home, it would be most effective to rank the general importance of characteristics such as price, neighborhood, and lot size. This allows them to prioritize what is most important to them when making their decision. Option A provides no ranking or weighting, Option B is unranked, and Option D is too specific and involves data on individual homes rather than establishing criteria for the decision as a whole.
