This will be my 9th rose bowl (that i can remember). biggest difference? the price, for the same seats, just opposite sides of the field. $255 vs $36, 2020 vs 1987. o. k. mathematicians, what’s the inflation rate over 33 years?

I=608.3%

Yearly average inflation: 18.43%

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing Rates

If a quantity has a value of X and later it has a (greater) value of Y, the increase is (Y-X). The increasing rate is

In the case the quantity is the price of an article in time, then that rate is called inflation.

We have that in 1987 the seat was $36 and the same seat is $255 in 2020. The inflation rate is

The yearly average inflation over 33 years is

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,
