Which of the following people is not correctly matched to the industry or
business he is historically associated with?
(A) John D. Rockefeller—oil
(B) John P. Morgan—investment
(C) Gustavus Swift—tobacco
(D) Andrew Carnegie—steel
(E) Cornelius Vanderbilt—railroads
The correct answer to the person who was wrongly matched to the industry he was supposedly involved with in this case would be C - Gustavus Swift as he did not fund and found a tobacco empire. He did, however, create a meat-packaging empire.
