Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The original equilibrium is where AD1 intersects AS1. A weaker dollar causes aggregate supply to decrease, represented by a shift from AS1 to AS2. But the weaker dollar makes imports more expensive and exports cheaper, so aggregate demand increases from AD1 to AD2. The new equilibrium is where AD2 intersects AS2, with an increase in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and a rise in the price level. This result is due to the fact that aggregate demand shifted further than aggregate supply. Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would have fallen if the shift in aggregate supply had been greater than the shift in aggregate demand.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
