In 1900, how long was the average workday? a) 6 hours b) 8 hours c) 9.5 hours d) 12 hours

The correct answer is C) 9.5 hours.

In 1900,  the average workday was 9.5 hours.

The Industrial Revolution brought many advantages but also many disadvantages. Workers had to work for long periods under unhealthy conditions and lack of fresh air. Wages were low and the spaces were crowded. It was the Union's protest and pressure to the US government to change those Inhuman long work hours. It was President Ulysses S Grant who issued an announcement that guaranteed an eight-hour workday in 1889 for government workers. By 1905, an 8-hour workday was common in industries.

It was Henry Ford who announced a five day, 40-hour workweek for his workers in 1926.

music always has an important role in culture and societies, infact for example rock’n roll music has conditioned different areas of pop culture above all in the 60s. in the modern american society its role is different.

unfortunately many think about how some unfortunate events happened to the columbine high school shootings can be related to rock music just because the teenagers involved listened to this kind of music.

i think that we can valorize the change to take refuge in this genre of music to keep on in everyday life, teenagers are comfortable when they can listen to a song about a specific problem. realizing that someone else is living your personal drama too can them to feel less lonely nowadays.

c would be the correct !

hope this !
