Official Answer
Dropdown 1: 30 cents
Dropdown 2: triple
Official Solution:
Drop-down 1:
The black line, representing ethanol, reaches its highest point at about the beginning of 2013, at approximately $3.30 per gallon. The red line, representing corn, reaches its lowest point near the end of 2015, at approximately $3.00 per bushel. Therefore, the highest cost of ethanol was approximately 30 cents greater than the lowest cost of corn.
Drop-down 2:
At the beginning of the period shown, the cost of gasoline was approximately $0.60 per gallon, while at the end of the period it was approximately $1.80 per gallon.
Since $1.80 is 3 times $0.60, the cost per gallon of gasoline at the end of the period was approximately triple what it was at the beginning.
Correct answer:
Dropdown 1: "30 cents"
Dropdown 2: "triple "
