Explanation:

For Question 13:

• Option A: The New Deal was in the 1930s, decades before Watergate, so it is not relevant.
• Option B: Rock music had no connection to government distrust.
• Option C: The Vietnam War's prolonged, unpopular escalation and ultimate failure eroded public trust in government leaders before Watergate.
• Option D: Bill Clinton was president long after Watergate, so this is incorrect.

For Question 14:

The bar graph shows the Cuban population in 1990 is approximately 1 million (the bar aligns with the 1 mark on the y-axis, which is measured in millions).

For Question 15:

The bar graph shows Mexican-origin Hispanics had the largest population in 1990, so a random Hispanic family is most likely from Mexico.

Answer:

1. C. the escalation and failure of the Vietnam War
2. C. 1,000,000
3. B. Mexico
