How was social darwanism used to justify the practices of big business?

Hope it helps!

Explanation:

The essence of Social Darwinism was a misreading of Darwinian thought to justify the advancement of big business in American society during the Gilded Age. Social Darwinists took Darwin's "survival of the fittest" and applied it to an "anything goes" atmosphere of economic growth and material acquisition.

when in doubt choose c

it's what my teacher told my class when we were going into psats

the correct answer is:   "   3.6 % " .

          →   the unemployment rate is:   " 3.6 % " .

explanation:

to calculate the "unemployment rate" :

the "unemployment rate"   =

  [# of people unemployed] /   [working age population]   * 100 %   ;

                =   [9 million] / [250 million]     *   100 % ;

    →     note:   the units of "million" cancel out;

                    since:   " {million} / {million} = 1 " ;

                =   (9 / 250)   * 100 %   ;

                = 0.036 * 100 % ;

                =   3.6 %

answer:   the unemployment rate is:   " 3.6 % " .
