Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

First economic welfare is a broad concept of economic well-being that entails all goods and services not just those measured by GDP. These include production in the home and within the underground economy. Secondly, items such as leisure time are all aspects that are highly desirable and count for economic welfare yet are not measured by GDP. Lastly, environmental quality is highly desired yet real GDP growth could actually reduce the quality of the environment. So for all these reasons, economic growth is not totally determined by real GDP.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
