Why does madge begin by agreeing that mr. miller may be right in his claim on the dog?
a) she never wanted to keep the dog in the first place.
b) she uses sarcasm to win the argument and to insult miller.
c) she knows her husband does not stand a chance against miller.
d) she wants to relieve the tension in the room, so miller might listen to her.

C) She knows her husband does not stand a chance against Miller.

Explanation:

Mr. Walt and his wife refuse to accept all proofs of Miller's ownership of the dog. Mr. Miller being a strongly built man says with  a contemptuous expression on his face, "I reckon there's nothin' in sight to prevent me takin' the dog  right here an' now."

This threat makes Madge agree with Mr. Miller's claim of dog's ownership.

Option A is not correct because Madge and her husband both loved the dog too much, as shown by their words, "You Wolf, you!" and "You blessed Wolf!" the man and woman called out"

Option B: She uses no sarcasm to win the argument and insult Miller after his threat.

Option D: Although there was a tension in the room, but by now she had decided not to argue with Mr. Miller about dog's ownership. Next they ask if Miller was ready to sell the dog to them.
