Aishath Haifa · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Technological improvements enable firms to produce more output with the same inputs or to produce output with fewer inputs. Thus, the economy's production capacity increases, leading to a shift in the production possibility frontier outward. This means that the economy can now produce more goods and services than before, leading to potential economic growth. It does not necessarily lead to increased unemployment as firms may hire more workers to produce the additional output generated by technological improvements.
