Purchasing power is the value of a currency expressed in terms of the amount of goods or services that one unit of money can buy. A rate of return is the annual percentage return realized on an investment, which is adjusted for changes in prices due to inflation or other external effects.
Given:
Rate of return = 3%Rate of inflation =3%
Buying Power = 3% - 3% = 0%
Thus, the buying power will remain same for the year.
The values are a = 7, b = -9, c = -18.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The given quadratic equation is 
The general form of the quadratic equation is 
where,
- a is the coefficient of x².
- b is the coefficient of x.
- c is the constant term.
Now, you have to modify the given quadratic equation similar to the general form of quadratic equation.
So, bring the constant term 18 to the left side of the equation for equating it to zero.
⇒ 
Compare the above equation with general form
⇒ a = 7
⇒ b = -9
⇒ c = -18
Therefore, the values of a, b, and c are 7, -9 and -18.
A) Net A would be the correct net for the prism.
B) AB = 3in
BC = 5in
CD = 8.6in
C) area of one triangle : 4*3/2 = 6
But there's 2 triangles so 6*2 = 12cm2
Area of the middle square : 8.6*4 = 34.4cm2
Area of bottom square : 8.6*5 = 43cm2
Area of top rectangle : 8.6*3 = 25.8cm2
Finally add all of these areas together and you will get the surface area : 115.2cm
