Answer 1

Answer:

I believe that the best answer choice from the ones offered, to answer the question: Which of the following best describes the Washington economy since World War II, would be, C: A series of ups and downs in economic activity.

Explanation:

Washington State, the last to be annexed into the United States, started to see huge economic improvement thanks to the world wars due to its location, its resources, and due to the fact that it became the homebase for a company as important as Boeing. Especially during World War II, the cities of Washington state saw a sudden burst of rapid development and economic boom, especially linked with the development of the aricraft industry. It was in this state that the plutonium needed for the atomic bomb was developed and provided. This economic boom reached its peak in the 1970´s, when the projects for supersonic commercial jets came to a stop, and the economic growth saw itself stunted and falling. This is why the answer is C.

Answer 2

The answer is D: A steady increase in economic activity
