Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Real GDP was initially 150 billion. The increase in investment increased real GDP by 25 billion, so real GDP increases to 175 billion. Real GDP increases by more than the initial increase in investment because the increase in investment increases disposable income which induces additional increases in consumption expenditure. So real GDP increases both because investment increases and also because of induced increases in consumption expenditure.
