Answer 1

An example of plagiarizing the third sentence would be:

"Between 1869–1910, the value of American manufacturing rose from $3 billion to $13 billion."

This is because it is a direct copy of the original sentence without any modification or paraphrasing, and it does not properly attribute the source. Including a citation does not change the fact that it is the exact wording from the original text.
