of capitalistic system can be removed in the mixed
economic system?​

Answer 1

A mixed economic system is a system that combines aspects of both capitalism and socialism. A mixed economic system protects private property and allows a level of economic freedom in the use of capital, but also allows for governments to interfere in economic activities in order to achieve social aims.

Answer 2

A capitalist economy relies on free-markets to determine, price, incomes, wealth and distribution of goods. A socialist economic system is characterised by greater government intervention to re-allocate resources in a more egalitarian way. There are also different aims of the economic systems.
