The line graph illustrates the prices (in euros) of four types of bread—wholegrain, brown, white, and rye—in a European country between 2001 and 2005.
Overall, while the prices of brown, white, and rye bread started at the same point and increased over the period, wholegrain bread, which was initially the most expensive, ended the period at its original price despite experiencing fluctuations.
Brown bread, priced at 0.6 euros in 2001, saw a significant rise to 1.6 euros by 2003. Although it briefly declined to 1.4 euros in 2004, it returned to its peak of 1.6 euros by 2005. Similarly, white bread’s price showed steady growth, increasing from 0.6 euros in 2001 to approximately 1.3 euros by the end of the period.
In contrast, rye bread remained stable at 0.6 euros until 2003, after which it experienced a slight increase, ending at around 0.7 euros.
Wholegrain bread, which was the most expensive at the beginning of the period (0.8 euros), experienced a sharp rise to 1.8 euros in 2002. However, its price declined dramatically to 1 euro in 2003 and continued to drop, eventually returning to its initial price by 2005.
