Answer 1

Statements 1 and 4 are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Economic growth is defined as an increase in the production of goods and services over a period of time. Economic growth is important because it shows growth in output(production) from one period to another. Some of the factors that promotes economic growth are but not limited to technology, human capital, population and law etc.

With regards to the above, property right is the legal ownership of properties or resources and can be used by owners as they deemed fit. It is the right of persons to rent, lease or sell their properties. When property right is clearly established and enforced, it gives people incentives to work and save hence one of the factors that promote economic growth.
