Answer:

The correct option is C.Tom's supervisor tells him that for every 10 cars tom sells he will get a $500 bonus. This is an example of a fixed ratio  reinforcement schedule.​

Explanation:

In the business terms, a fixed ratio reinforcement refers to crediting a person based on a consistent schedule. The ratio describes how many sales should be made to get the defined reinforcement. In the question, Tom was told to sell 10 cars so 10 was the ratio according to which he would get a reinforcement of $500. Hence, option C is the correct answer.

Other options such as fixed interval are incorrect because they do not define the criteria of the question. Like in a fixed interval, a reward is given after a specific time.
