e. 3.7%

Explanation / Answer

1. e Plastic

Plastic is a non renewable natural source.

2. GDP = C+I+G+(E-I)

300 = C + 70 + 80 + (50-80)

C = $180 billion (option e)

3. e. The price level increased but there was no effect on GDP

SInce, supply has decreased, the prices will go up. But demand remains same, so GDP will be unaffected.

4. Let annual growth be x.

So, (1+x)25 = 2

So, x= 2.9% (Option c)
