The use of the assembly line to manufacture automobiles by Henry Ford had resulted in which by 1930?
A) Working class people could borrow half the amount needed to buy a car.
B) Average American families could purchase a car for less than $1000.

Okay, so B is the answer – but I need to find a way to argue that A is the answer. Can anyone help?

Also…

1925 Scopes “Monkey Trial” pitted religious conservatives against:
A) Supreme Court, which ruled that the teaching of evolution was unconstitutional in American Schooling.
B) Liberals who believed that Darwinism should be taught in the school curriculum.

Once again, the answer is B but I need a way to argue that A is the answer…

Can anyone help?
