Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The impact of the real interest rate on the floating exchange-rate system makes total expenditures more responsive to changes in the real interest rate, causing the IS curve to be more elastic (flatter). For example, an increase in the real interest rate increases the exchange rate, decreasing net exports. So, the higher real interest rate decreases not only investment and consumption expenditures, but also net exports.
