Answer: Second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Selling price for a can of soda last year = $0.75

Selling price for a can of soda this year = $0.70

Difference between the selling price for a can = $0.70 - $0.75 = -$0.05

So, Deflation rate would be

[tex]\dfrac{-0.05}{0.75}\times 100\\\\=-6.7\%[/tex]

Hence, Second option is correct.
