Answer:   Investors and banks were involved in buying huge amounts of stocks with borrowed money.

Explanation:

There was much speculative buying on the stock market in "the Roaring '20s," as the decade was known.  In the 1920s, people were so eager to invest and earn profits through the stock market that they bought stocks "on margin."  In other words, they paid for only a marginal percentage of the stocks with their own funds, and borrowed bank funds for the rest of the purchase.  That meant the banks were complicit in this arrangement too, by allowing those sorts of loans. By the late 1920s, 90% of the purchase price of stocks was being made with borrowed money.  This inflated the market in a way that spiraled out of control, and in 1929 the market crashed.

pychu [463]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em><u>A) the worlds first civilization</u></em>

Explanation:

Located in modern-day Iraq, the city-state of Sumer is recognized by many as the earliest example of a civilization.

The city had a functioning central government, an organized religion and planned agriculture and irrigation. This shows a sophisticated community which was a far cry from the old nomadic lifestyles of people before them.

Sumer also gave rise to sophisticated art and poetry and left a mark on the region for many centuries to come.
