Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

When balanced growth is achieved, K/NA and Y/NA are constant so their rates of growth are 0. K and Y must, therefore, grow at the same rate as NA which equals the sum of population growth and rate of TP. The rate of growth of Y/N will equal the rate of growth of TP. C will grow at the same rate as Y.
