Explanation:

Question 14

The Jazz Age, flappers, Model T automobiles, economic prosperity, and increased use of radios and electricity are all associated with the Roaring Twenties, which was from 1918 (end of WWI) to 1929 (start of the Great Depression). 1914 - 1918 is WWI, 1957 - 1962 and 1962 - 1979 are later periods not associated with these elements.

The Secretary of State is responsible for foreign policy. Protecting public lands (A) is Interior, managing highways/airlines (B) is Transportation, funding schools (D) is Education - related. So C is correct.

From the chart, "algebra" has origin in Arabic. Arabic - speaking regions are in the Middle East. West Africa (F), South Asia (G), Europe (H) don't match Arabic's region.

Answer:

G. 1918 to 1929
