Respuesta :

Answer:

a. 8.33 percent

Explanation:

The computation of the economy's growth rate between the two years is presented below:

= (GDP at the end of year 2 - GDP at the end of year 1) ÷ (GDP at the end of year 1) × 100

= ($1,300 billion - $1,200 billion) ÷ ($1,200 billion)  × 100

= ($100 billion) ÷ ($1,200 billion)   × 100

= 8.33%

The economic growth rate is always expressed in percentage form
