a. Describe the process by which the Fed's action reported in the news clip flows through the economy.

b. Draw a graph to illustrate the state of the economy that prompted the Fed to take the action described in the news clip.

c. Draw a graph to illustrate the Fed's action and its effect.

This is what I have for part A- I believe the answer has to do with the economy being stable which increased the interest rate when then reduce money supply causing inflation. When interest rates are increased, it makes it harder to borrow money because it costs more to the consumers.
