We'll assume that the CPI is given for the END of the year.

Then 2014's rate is the change in price from 2013 in percent,

r = 180/125 - 1 = 36/25 - 1 = 11/25 = 44 %

Answer: choice c

----------

This is a pretty poor question.  The questioner should clarify the exact dates of the given values of the CPI, and use the actual values.   44% is an alarming inflation rate, but fortunately a fictitious one here in the US.  US inflation in 2014 was around 0.7% so the number the student was asked to compute was off by more than a factor of sixty.

The sum of three number is -44.85. One of the numbers is 24.6. The other two number are equal to each other. What is the value o
tiny-mole [99]
Let the number be x. The other number is also x.

Given the first number is 24.6 and sum is -44.85
24.6 + x + x = -44.85

Combine like terms:
2x + 24.6 = -44.85

Add 24.6 on both sides:
2x = -44.85 - 24.6

Evaluate Right Hand Side:
2x = -69.45

Divide both sides by 2:
x =- 34.725

Answer: The two numbers are both  -34.725.

Use Julia’s work and finish finding the areas of the faces what is the surface area of the rectangular pyramid
hoa [83]

Answer:

The surface area of the rectangular pyramid is SA=109.50\ m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the rectangular prism is equal to the area of the rectangular base plus the area of the four triangular faces

so

SA=(8)(5)+2[14.75]+2[\frac{1}{2}(8)(5)]

SA=40+29.50+40

SA=109.50\ m^{2}

What is the measure of angle x, In degrees?<br><br> Helps please!!
Mars2501 [29]
Because segments XY and XZ are of equal length, angle Y and angle Z must be congruent.

All inner angles must add to 180 degrees since it's a triangle.
70+70+x=180
140+x=180
x=40

Final answer: D
