A. Companies cut production and jobs.

Explanation:

During the 1920s and 6the 1930, America was facing the great depression.

There was wide spread bank failure. Companies ran low on capital and as a result had to drop most of their labourers.

As a result, most Americans lost their jobs from the countries.

Those who retained their jobs had their salaries cut.

Companies had to reduce the production cost including raw material use which rendered most of the American investors broke.

the correct answer is 2.

a slump in geology means a mass movement process of slope failure. a mass of rock or unconsolidated material drops along a slip surface. in other words, rock layers move a short distance down the slope. the slump block is an intact block (2), without any landslide material.

in this image, 1 is the surface of rapture (scarp), 2 the slump block, 3 main scarp (crown), 4 base of rapture with debris flow.

slumps are caused by clear cutting on unstable soils and the sagging of earth, in coastal areas they are due to wave infiltration.
