A. getting ten cents for every can recycled B. paying higher taxes to start a city recycling program C. attending a free concert for recycling a trash bag full of plastic bottles D. having the opportunity to meet a celebrity for recycling the most in a competition

Answer 1

Answer: B

Explanation: "Incentive" means "A motivation for choosing one alternative over another." All of these answers would be motivation for the citizens to choose those alternatives - except for B, like the answer above me said. No one wants to pay higher taxes.

I hope this helps. :)

i would have to say the answer is B. No one wants to pay higher taxes just to recycle, so it would not be a incentive to do so. Hope this helps.
