This graduated cylinder has numbers representing milliliters. A student says that the volume of the liquid inside is 21.8 milliliters.

What best explains why the student is wrong?

21.8 is at the top of the meniscus, but volume should be measured in the middle of the meniscus.

21.8 is at the top of the meniscus, but volume should be measured at the bottom of the meniscus.

Since the whole numbers represent milliliters, the student must use a unit smaller than milliliters.

The price of oil and inflation are connected in a cause and effect relationship, that is, when the price of oil increases, inflation also increases in an economy. this is because, oil is a major input in the economy, that is, it is used for critical purposes such as fueling of vehicles for transportation, for running of industrial generators and machines, for heating homes, etc.for instance, if the price of oil increases in an economy, it will increase the cost of production for those using the oil in their production processes and they will automatically increase the cost of their products in order to offset the extra costs. this leads to general increase in the prices of products in the market and result in inflation.
