Correct answer
Explanation
Persuasive means having the ability to convince or influence others. Forcing captures the aspect of compelling someone to do something, though persuasion is usually more subtle than force. Firm means solid. Bias is prejudice. Working well refers to functioning properly. Forcing is the closest option to compelling action, though the mapping is imperfect.
