Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The economy would go from a short-run equilibrium below potential GDP to a short-run equilibrium above potential GDP. The increase in government purchases, which equals the shortfall in real GDP from potential real GDP, is too large. The increase in government purchases needs to be less than the shortfall in real GDP because of the multiplier effect.

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. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
