answer explanation:
<p>The correct answer is <strong>(B) account</strong>.</p>
<p>In this sentence, the manager is being asked to provide an explanation or justification for the unexpected decrease in sales. The verb "account" is the most appropriate choice here because it means to give a reason or explanation for something. The other options, "explain," "tell," and "talk," are not as precise or suitable in this context. Therefore, the correct verb to use is "account."</p>
