a. What are the relative and absolute changes in the Charlie Card bus fare? You don't have to do this in
your head, without a calculator, but you should be able to.
b. Create a spreadsheet for these data, with eight rows (one for each of the eight categories) and three
columns, for the category name, the existing fare and the proposed fare. Create a properly labeled bar
graph to display the data.
c. Label the next two columns appropriately to hold the relative and absolute changes. Fill those
columns with Excel formulas to compute the correct values. Do not compute the values elsewhere and
enter them in the spreadsheet as numbers. [See the back of the book for a hint.]

d. Imagine that you are addressing a public meeting about these fare increases. How would you argue
that an unfair burden is being placed on people who pay using a Charlie Ticket? How would you argue
that senior citizens are most hard hit?
