Correct answer: "The society is using all of its resources efficiently."

Explanation: Long‑run equilibrium occurs where aggregate demand intersects the long‑run aggregate supply (LRAS) at potential (natural) output. That means the economy is producing at its sustainable capacity (full employment—only frictional/structural unemployment remains) and there are no persistent pressures for output to rise or fall. It does not imply stagnation; the economy can still grow over time as LRAS shifts outward.
