Answer:

Explanation:

The economy is expanding and inflation is a concern

Answer:  The correct answer is :  The economy is prosperous with relatively low inflation and low unemployment.

Explanation:  Generally when things are going well and the unemployment rate is at a minimum of 50 years, the Fed increases interest rates as a defense against inflation. But the Fed changed its strategy because inflation remains below the target, unemployment is low and the economy is growing at a reasonable rate.
