Answer: the major railroad companies

Explanation: In 1883, the major railroad companies in USA divided the time zone into four parts to simplify the time differences among them as well as for internal operations.

This was initiated at the industrial era and is still followed by the rail road companies in USA. The grouping of zones was important because of the large size of USA.

Hence, we can conclude that Option A is correct.

Step 2: 20% of 8,000 or 0.20 times 8,000 = 1,600

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": The partnership has a limited life.

Explanation:

A partnership is an organization with two or more members running a business. They share the profits in percentage terms in proportion to their partnership value. There are two types of partnerships: general partnerships (<em>unlimited liability</em>) and limited partnerships (<em>liability proportional to the contribution to the partnership</em>).

The partnership dissolves and a new partnership is created when one of the partners is removed, retired or deceased or even when a new partner is introduced. Thus, <em>partnerships have a limited life</em>.
