Answer 1

Im here to help!

what do you think??

Answer 2

is this more than one answer?

Answer 3

nope! just one answer. i think it makes sense that it would be increase in consumption because that means there'd need to be more goods produced or whatever but idk

Answer 4

i believe you are correct on B "increase in consumption! Reason for that is "consumption means "the using up of resource" or " a wasting disease" .. with the "gross domestic going up" , the consumption will increase , hope this helped

Answer 5

nice ok!! thats what i thought but i felt unsure. thanks a bunch.

Answer 6

Econ is close enough to History. GDP is everything produced in a country. So rule out imports, those aren't produced domestically.
Lower investments means less capital available to producers. So, no.
Increased consumption sounds like it could lead to more production, but is not enough if other factors are not available, like more capital.
Lower taxes means the government is not taking capital. Governments don't produce anything.
So lower taxes means more available capital to producers. More money to put to work means making more stuff.
