    A stamp collection consists of 3, 8, and 15 cent stamps.

    A stamp collection consists of 3, 8, and 15 cent stamps. The number of 8 cent stamps is one less than triple the number of 3 cent stamps. The number of 15 cent stamps is six less than the number of 8 cent stamps. The total value of all the stamps is $2.47. Find the number of 8 cent stamps in the collection. [Fifteen points for

    Predicting Price Using Inflation Rate

    St. Kitts and Nevis is a small Caribbean island country that uses East Caribbean Dollars (XCD) as currency. Their annual growth rate is 2.1% and their inflation rate is 3.6%.
