1. Which of the following helped fuel economic growth by encouraging people to buy American goods? (1 point)
Nataly [62]
1. The correct answer here is the third option. 

One way to fuel your economy is to have people buy domestic products. After the Great Depression the US economy was in shambles and in order to revitalize it even just a little, the government used protective tariffs. When you impose taxes, that is tariffs the price of the goods they are placed on will increase. Thus the domestic products would be cheaper and thus would be bought more than imported, more expensive goods. 

2.The correct answer here is the first option.

A cartel is a group of firms, producers or individuals that, while on the surface independent, work together in order to increase their profits by manipulating the market by some restrictive practices like price fixing. On the other hand a monopoly is when a single company or an individual control the whole market and thus have complete freedom in setting the quality of  products and their prices. 

3. 
The correct answer here is the fourth option. 

For a long time the work hours and the activities of the people have been dictated by the time of the day and the amount of available sunlight.

4.The correct answer here would be the third option.

The American Federation of Labor was a labor organization that operated on the level of the whole state and which consisted mainly from the various craft unions.

6.The correct answer here is the first option.

But unfortunately, someone threw dynamite at the police which who then reacted to disperse the crowd. This event served as a catalyst for the workers and the people of US to turn away from radicalism. 

7. The correct answer here is the third option.

It was during the 1880 and 1885 that a technological boom occurred. The more and more things were being rapidly invented and patented which resulted in the doubling of the number of patents granted during this period.

9.The correct answer here is again the first option.

10.The correct answer here is the last option.
