Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The Phillips curve shows a trade-off between unemployment and inflation. With the unemployment rate on the horizontal axis and inflation on the vertical, the Phillips curve is pictured as a downward sloping curve. If the curve is a suitable representation of the economy, in the short run policy makers can choose the combination of inflation and unemployment that they want.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. 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.
