Aperiod of economic growth as measured by a rise in the real gdp signifies that the economy is a. contracting. b. expanding. c. receding. d. stalling.

Your answer would be B). expanding

A period of economic growth as measured by a rise in the real GDP signifies that the economy is expanding.

Definition:

GDP:

GDP is known as "gross domestic product," meaning the value of products and goods a nation provided.

Explanation:

The reason why "expanding" would be the correct answer is because when a GDP from a economy rises, that means the economy is expanding. When the GDP, or gross domestic product, of a economy increases, that means they're are getting more goods and products, and that equals to value. or profit. The more value they have in the economy, the more profit they could make off of it and get things to help benefit the economy. The GDP of a economy has many factors that adds up the GDP, and it's mostly because of businesses. The more the GDP increases, the more the economy is expanding from businesses, to people, and etc. This is the reason why this answer choice would be correct.

Why the other answer choices are incorrect:

The reason why answer choice "A. contracting" is incorrect because:

The word "contracting" means to decrease in numbers. When a GDP increases, the value of the economy increases, and the economy is expanding more. The economy wouldn't be decreasing if the GDP is increases. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.

The reason why answer choice "C. receding" is incorrect because:

Receding also means to "move back" from a current stand point. The GDP in your question is increasing, and not going back (decreasing) from an original point. If the GDP decreased from a certain point, the it would be called receding, but then in the question it's only rising. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.

The reason why answer choice "D. stalling." is incorrect because:

The word "stalling" is another word for a brief pause. If the GDP of a economy is increasing, there would be no stalling in the increase of the GDP, since it's constantly increasing and expanding. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
