Question

After the Civil War, the southern eceonmy was primarily
industrial
agrarian
marine
both a and b

In my book, it mentions both industrial and agrarian but then it states the econmy was largely agrarian so I'm not sure what I should put down.

Which of the following was the main economic activity of the plains region?
farming
mining
ranching
all of the above

Once again, I thought farming but it never really said only that-it just mentions farming, mining, ranching as being part of the plains eceonmic activity so I'm not sure again

Help!

The key word is "primarily." Doesn't "largely agrarian" mean the economy was "primarily agrarian?"

The second answer must be "all of the above," unless you can find a more definitive answer in your book.
Thank you, that is somewhat how I felt or was leaning but I just wasn't sure

Thanks again
Ms. Sue
You're welcome. :-)
