Question 3 Part B: Which sentences from paragraph 1 best support the answer to Part A? Select TWO correct answers.
Most food historians credit German immigrant Charles Feltman with the invention of this American favorite.
Feltman sold baked goods to beachgoers on New York's famous Coney Island.
He soon realized that hungry visitors would pay handsomely for a hearty, handheld snack.
He sliced a fresh bun and added a piping hot frankfurter, a traditional German sausage.
Demand was so high that Feltman went from a pushcart in 1869 to a permanent stand in 1871.

Which sentence from paragraph 3 best shows that Nathan Handwerker was a smart businessman?
Nathan Handwerker, a Polish immigrant, worked at Feltman's for years.
In 1916, Handwerker opened a hot dog stand at the corner of Surf and Stillwell Avenues.
He sold his hot dogs for five cents, half the price of Feltman's.
Soon, Nathan's Famous hot dogs became even more popular and profitable than Feltman's.
