Answer:
This appears to be exponential based on the plot of these points
Step-by-step explanation:

Consumer Price Index or also most commonly known as CPI is calculated through the equation,
CPI = (price at a certain year / price at base year) x 100
Since, we have chosen 2014 as the base year, the denominator of the fraction will be $86. Calculating the CPI for 2015,
CPI = ($90/$86) x 100
= <em>104.65</em>
The coordinates of the point intersection of lines (-1, -1)
If you want solve:
y = -2x - 3, y = 3x + 2
-2x - 3 = 3x + 2 |+3
-2x = 3x + 5 |-3x
-5x = 5 |:(-5)
x = -1
Put the value of x to the first equation:
y = (-2)(-1) - 3 = 2 - 3 = -1
x = -1, y = -1
The law of cosines states that:
c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcosC
You already have all the values for the variables with the exception of x so:
x^2=25+100-100cos60
x=√(125-100cos60)
x=√75
x≈8.66 to nearest one-hundredth...
