Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete; However, one can deduce from the options that the question refers to percentage change.

I will give two illustrations that shows how to calculate percentage change.

Illustration 1

Consider goods x with the following price change.

[tex]Old = \$45[/tex]

[tex]New = \$55[/tex]

The percentage change is:

[tex]\%Change = \frac{New - Old}{Old} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{55-45}{45} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{10}{45} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{1000}{45} \%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = 22.22\%[/tex]

This means there is a 22.22% increase

Illustration 2

Consider goods x with the following price change.

[tex]Old = \$45[/tex]

[tex]New = \$35[/tex]

The percentage change is:

[tex]\%Change = \frac{New - Old}{Old} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{35-45}{45} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{-10}{45} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = -\frac{1000}{45} \%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = -22.22\%[/tex]

The negative sign indicates percentage decrease

So, this means there is a 22.22% decrease
