Answer 1

$175 million

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount spent on the investment is shown below:

As we know that

GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government purchase + Net exports

where,

GDP is $350 million

Consumption is $100 million

Government spent = $75 million

So, the investment amount is

$350 million = $100 million + investment + $75 million

So, the investment is $175 million
