If the price of a school bus increased at the same rate as the CPI from 1970 to 1984, how much did a school bus cost in 1970? By how much did the price of a school bus increase from 1970 to 1984?

2.If the price of a school bus increased at the same rate as the CPI from 1984 to 1992, how much did a school bus cost in 1992? By how much did the price of a school bus increase from 1984 to 1992?
