- The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the change in the cost of goods over time. The index was 100 for the three-year period centered on 1983. For simplicity, we will assume that the CPI was exactly 100 in 1982. Then the CPI of 193.6 in 2006 indicates that an item that cost $1.00 in 1982 would cost $1.94 in 2006. The CPI has been increasing approximately linearly over the last few decades. a. Use this information to determine an equation for the CPI in terms of t, which represents the years since 1982. b. Based on the answer to part (a), what was the predicted value of the CPI in 2000? Compare this estimate with the actual CPI of 168.6. c.
