If the inflation rates in the first and the third years were 10% and 25%, respectively, what was it during the second year? (Write the required rate in decimal form to be rounded to the nearest thousandth. Put 0 before decimal point if needed.) Letting a and b be two positive real numbes such that ab = 1, which of the followings is true? In what follows, (HM) (a, b), (AM) (a, b) and %3D (GM) (a, b) represent the Harmonic, Arithmetic and Geometric means of a and b. Select one or more: a. (GM) (a, b) < 1 b.
