Jacob's consumption increased by $12,000.

<h3>What is the marginal propensity to consume?</h3>

The marginal propensity to consume is defined as the proportion of an increase in income that a consumer consumes instead of saving.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Amount of disposal income in 2019 = $30,000

Amount of consumption in 2019 = $20,000

Increased disposal income = $40,000

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.8

Increase in consumption = $12,000 ($40,000 x 0.8 - $20,000)

Thus, Jacob's consumption increased by $12,000.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

B. Encouraged blacks to adjust to segregation and abandon the push for civil rights.

Explanation:

Booker T Washington was author and adviser to US presidents. He was one of the most important leaders in the African-American community and one of the last leaders born as slaves and faced discrimination due to Jim Crow Laws. During the lynchings of Black Americans in 1895, he gave a speech, known as Atlanta Compromise and talked about the black progress through education rather than challenging the Jim Crow laws and disenfranchisement in the south. He mobilized middle-class blacks, philanthropists, and politicians to build the economic strength of the black community. He urged the blacks for accepting the discrimination and concentrating on elevating themselves through material prosperity and hard work.
