B. lower British interest rate levels
C. raise U.S. interest rate levels
D. lower U.S. interest rate levels
Answer:
A, raise British interest rate levels
Explanation:
Increasing the interest rate levels of the British will help strengthen the pound against the Dollar. This would mean that the United States is offering lower interest rate.
This is possible because a higher interest rate means that lenders will make higher returns compared to countries with lower interest rates.
