aight well persuasive texts try to get the reader to join a certain side of something, such as... a text where an oil company is tryna get you to buy more oil a text where a cookie store is talking about the dangers of the nearby cake shop etc. based on that little piece of info, u got an idea on what it is?

In the future you should let them see if they know what the answer is before giving out answers while explaining.
