Final answer:
In 'The Great Gatsby,' George Wilson mistakenly associates the yellow car with Tom Buchanan following his wife's death, although it is actually owned by Gatsby. Therefore, the correct multiple-choice option is (a).
Step-by-step explanation:
In F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby, the character George Wilson associates the yellow car with Tom Buchanan. This confusion arises after the tragic hit-and-run that kills Wilson's wife, Myrtle.
Although the yellow car is owned by Jay Gatsby, Tom had been driving it earlier that day, leading Wilson to mistakenly believe that Tom was the driver at the time of the accident.Therefore, the correct multiple-choice option is (a).
