Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Three basic economic systems are the traditional, command, and market systems. The traditional system is based on decisions made according to custom, and the command system answers the three economic questions through some powerful central authority. In contrast, the market system uses the impersonal mechanism of the interaction of buyers and sellers through markets to answer the What, How, and For Whom questions.
