Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A good is a normal good if an increase in incomes leads to an increase in demand for a good. Most goods are normal goods. An example of a normal good is new clothes. A good is an inferior good if an increase in income leads to a decrease in demand for the good. Second-hand clothing that can be purchased at thrift stores is an inferior good.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
