Respuesta :

Answer: B  It increased before the 1770s and then declined between 1771 and 1790

Explanation:

From the description of the graph given we see that the number of enslaved people coming into the Carolinas and Georgia increased from 23,000 in the period of 1751 to 1760, to 28,000 in the period of 1761 to 1770.

After 1770 however, this trend reversed and started declining when it declined to 25,000 in the period 1771 to 1780 then to 14,000 in the period 1781 to 1790 and finally to 13,500 in the period 1791 to 1800.

Based on the information given, the correct option will be "It increased before the 1770s and then declined between 1771 and 1790".

  • The number of enslaved people who came into the country increased from 23000 to 28000 during the period between 1751 to 1770.

  • Then, there was a reduction later from 1771 to 1790. It should be noted that there wasn't a consistent reduction. It was an increase at first, before the reduction.

In conclusion, the correct option is B
