Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Conflict theory focuses on how power and resources are unequally distributed in society, which directly relates to economic inequality. This approach would be most likely to examine how economic inequality affects people with disabilities, as they are often marginalized and may have limited access to resources and opportunities.
