The correct answer is D) A Patriot loss at Kettle Creek would have given the British control of Georgia's backcountry towns and settlements.

The most likely result if the Patriots had lost the Battle of Kettle Creek would have been "a Patriot loss at Kettle Creek would have given the British control of Georgia's backcountry towns and settlements."

We are talking about an armed confrontation between the Continental Army and the British troops, as part of the Revolutionary War. On February 14, 1779, both armies fought the Battle at Kettle Creek, in Wilkes County, Georgia. On its march to the city of Augusta, the Continental Army intercepted and defeated a troop of loyalists.
