1 answer

Based on the passage, the reasons why Devin and Manny might select different homes are:

  1. They have different needs that likely cannot be met by the same home. (Devin needs a home equipped for a person in a wheelchair, while Manny does not have this requirement.)

  2. Devin can afford to spend more money on a home than Manny can pay. (Devin has a high-paying job, while Manny has a low-paying job.)

These two options directly relate to their differing situations and requirements. The other options regarding styles of houses and willingness to look in more areas are not supported by the information provided in the passage.
