  a. How many owner operators are in the industry? vs c. How many owner-operators are in the industry?

Both phrases are correct, but the second one is more commonly used and follows the standard practice of hyphenating compound nouns like 'owner-operator.' The hyphen helps clarify that 'owner' and 'operator' are acting as a single unit. Therefore, 'c. how many owner-operators are in the industry?' is the preferred choice.
