During the American Revolution, most of the slaves could not serve in the army, free blacks could but slaves could not. Some historians say that the American Revolution reinforced the idea of a racial identity based on skin color.
Because of that some slaves and blacks decided to fight for the British, because they offered them freedom for joining their cause, a thing that the Americans did not offer them.
Of the half a million slaves that were in the American colonies during the American Revolution, 20 thousand joined the British cause. Many slaves that belonged to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, and others fled to the British side.
The main result was that this led to the largest slave uprising and the greatest emancipation until the Civil War. Some of those ex-slaves emigrated to Sierra Leone, Canada, and Britain.

They ultimately agreed to impose an economic boycott on British trade, and they drew up a Petition to the King pleading for redress of their grievances and repeal of the Intolerable Acts.
The correct option is "b. They speculated in the stock market."
The North American economy of the twenties was based on fragile pillars because, to a large extent, it was oriented to speculation. A substantial part of the business profits was not destined to improve productivity but to easy and fast businesses. The monetary surpluses went to the stock exchanges where low-priced stocks were acquired and sold as soon as their price was high.
From 1926 that economic model went into decline. The saturation of the market and the decrease in demand caused a decrease in industrial investment. The countryside was affected by an overproduction crisis and farmers suffered a substantial reduction in their profits. Speculation not only affected the stock market, it also extended to areas such as the second home: there were areas, such as Florida, that were the prey of an unprecedented real estate boom. The houses were bought and sold with the sole purpose of obtaining quick profits and their prices doubled or tripled in just a few months.
