Social Darwinism most heavily affected the US government's relationship to big business during the late 1800s, coined by Mark Twain as "the Gilded Age." The theory affected this relationship by convincing (or allowing politicians to convince themselves) that only the strongest will survive and thus the government operated under a <em>laissez-faire </em>system (French for "hands off"). The government felt it should not regulate or weigh in on business issues and instead let businesses conduct affairs amongst themselves; however, this led to the creation of large monopolies, the formation of a moneyed elite still with us today, and the creation of the now huge wealth gap between the richest and poorest Americans.
The focus was on expansionism, the United States took little part in foreign affairs for much of the 1800s. Committed to the policy of isolationism, the U.S. declined to intervene in an independence movement in Poland when asked to do so by foreign leaders.

Explanation:
As the statement indicates that Patricia was treated differently when lenders and real estate agents realized that she was an african american and considering the options given, the one that would have most likely ocurred before they realized that she was an African American is that she was asked fewer questions about her finances as she was treated as everyone else.
The other options are not the answer because that she was considered "risk" due to her financial situation, that she experienced unkept appointments and that she was quoted higher rents compared to people of other ethnicities would have been behaviors that lenders and real state agents would have taken when they found out that she was an african american.
